Israeli forces kill 19 Palestinians in three days of Gaza attacks

Israeli forces have killed nineteen Palestinians over the course of three days of attacks in the Gaza Strip, according to the Palestinian Health Ministry. Six fatalities were reported in the last 24 hours, following thirteen deaths during the previous weekend. The casualties include individuals killed in air strikes, as well as those who succumbed to injuries sustained during clashes with Israeli troops.

The Palestinian Health Ministry has documented a total of nineteen deaths since Saturday, with the majority of victims resulting from Israeli air strikes. One Palestinian died on Tuesday morning, following an Israeli bombing of a displacement camp where he was residing in Khan Younis. Another person was killed in an air strike targeted at a group of people at the University College of Applied Sciences (UCAS) in Khan Younis.

The Palestinian Ministry of Education and Higher Education reported that at least fourteen pupils and four teachers were killed in Gaza in October, following the resumption of the academic year. Additionally, three employees of the Islamic University were killed in an Israeli bombing at their campus earlier this month.

The Palestinian Health Ministry also revealed that more than ninety-seven percent of schools and universities across the Gaza Strip have been destroyed by Israeli attacks. The remaining educational institutions continue to face threats of further destruction and violence.
