A recent incident in southern Gaza has resulted in the deaths of at least 12 people and left 75 injured. The tragic event occurred when an Israeli tank fired upon a shelter for refugees in the Khan Yunis training centre. Disturbing video footage shows thick black smoke engulfing the building, which was housing 800 people displaced by the ongoing conflict.
The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) have stated that they have ruled out the possibility of the incident being caused by an aerial or artillery strike carried out by their forces. Instead, they suggest that the attack may have been initiated by Hamas fire. The IDF has intensified its military offensive in and around Khan Yunis, the second largest city in Gaza.
