Among the dead and wounded were civilians at two UNRWA shelter schools. The Civil Defense recovered five bodies, including children, from Asmaa school in Al-Shati Camp, west of Gaza City, which was set ablaze by the bombing. Another six bodies were retrieved from Abdel Fattah Hamoud School in the Jaffa area of central Gaza City.
