Israeli Strikes in Bureij and Nuseirat Camps in Central Gaza Kill Entire Families

HeadlineMay 31, 2024

Israel continues its unabated attacks across the Gaza Strip. Overnight, airstrikes on the Bureij refugee camp in central Deir al-Balah killed at least 11 people. Mourners grieved their loved ones at Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital.

Selah Rouqa: “What happened was we heard that there was a massacre in Bureij camp from the Al-Sous family. My daughter was there, and her children. She is their daughter-in-law. The whole house was martyred. The Israelis bombed the house. Her husband, her children, her father-in-law, her mother-in-law, her sisters-in-law were killed. The whole family was killed. My darling, my daughter.”

A separate attack in Nuseirat camp struck a car carrying a family that had been providing free meals for displaced people.
