GAZA (Dispatches) – Gaza’s Health Ministry said Friday 61 Palestinians were martyred and 231 wounded in the latest 24-hour reporting period.
The announcement came as Zionist troops on Friday fired at a watchtower used by UN peacekeepers in southern Lebanon, injuring two people.
There was a scene of chaos in Beirut on Thursday after Israel struck the city center destroyed two residential buildings, killing at least 22 people and wounding 117.
The Zionist regime’s onslaught continued in Gaza, with a number of people, including an infant, killed in Jabalia and Deir el-Balah.
Israel launched an airstrike in central Beirut, Lebanon, outside of the city’s southern suburbs, killing about two dozen people and wounding scores of others.
The Ministry of Public Health in Lebanon said on Thursday night at least 22 people were killed and 117 wounded in Israeli strikes on Beirut this evening.
The Israeli army attacked the central area of the city.
A huge number of people were injured they were brought to nearby hospitals in the surrounding neighborhood.
People were running and screaming in the neighborhoods, absolutely traumatized.
Lebanon’s Health Ministry said that more than 2,141 people have been killed and 10,099 injured in Israel’s attack on Lebanon, including dozens of children and scores of women, since October 2023.
Hundreds of thousands of civilians have fled their homes in Beirut to escape the Israeli air raids.
Also on Thursday, at least 28 displaced people, including women and children, were been killed in an Israeli airstrike on a school-turned-shelter in central Gaza, while hospitals in the north are ordered to evacuate, amid a major Israeli aggression.
The air raid targeted Rafidah School in Deir al-Balah, which was housing over 1,000 displaced people.
According to medics, the strike killed 28 Palestinians and wounded 54 others. 
“We were sitting in peace, in front of the school,” Abu Hamza, who was taking refuge at the site, told Middle East Eye, adding that, a huge explosion “broke through three floors of the building” suddenly.
“The people took refuge here because it was meant to be safe. But there are no safe places. The Israelis are liars,” he said.
Describing the aftermath of the blast, the 34-year-old Nahed al-Zaneen, who teaches displaced children in tents near Rafidah School, said “I get out and all I see is shreds of bodies all over the floor. Heads blown up, innocent children scattered across the floor.”
The impact of the Israeli airstrike on Rafida School, a refuge for displaced Palestinians in Deir al-Balah in the central Gaza Strip, has left a significant destruction. 
“What did these children do wrong? Were these children holding missiles? Did they have guns?”
The Israeli military ordered residents of Jabalia and nearby areas to relocate to the so-called “humanitarian zones” designated by Israel in southern Gaza. Still, Palestinian and UN officials say there are no safe places in the densely populated strip.
