Another day in Gaza: Israel says it attacks Hamas, but kills a teenager on her way to an exam

While all eyes continue to be on southern Lebanon, where the Israeli Army occupies a third of the territory of the neighboring country and which it claims is fighting against the Shiite militia Hezbollah, those same IDF continue to murder in the country. Yesterday, Monday, a new civilian victim was added to the disastrous toll of a thousand Palestinians murdered since the supposed ceasefire in the Gaza Strip was announced.

The justification of the Israeli Army, that is, the announcement of what they were bombing, once again had as its justification an attack against an alleged militant of the Palestinian armed group, Hamas. However, the death that the medical services of the Palestinian Red Crescent ended up announcing was not that of a man who could integrate said insurgency.

His name was Raghad Hassan Ashour. She was a 16-year-old Palestinian teenager who was walking on a street in the Rima district towards her high school. In the final stages of the academic year – if it can be called a course to be studied under current conditions – he was heading to the secondary school when the explosion took place, leaving three other people injured. There he was going to take the eleventh grade exam, according to .

Israeli Army says it has evidence of a person “unrelated to the attack” who was “wounded”

The death of Raghad Ashour does not only add to the thousand murdered Palestinians that show that there is no real truce on the land that Israel has occupied—even more so, surrounding the center of Gaza City—and delimited with yellow lines. It adds to the 73,018 deaths recorded by the Gaza Ministry of Health since the Hamas attacks of October 7, 2023.

According to the aforementioned US agency, the Israeli Army has stated that the attack targeted an alleged Hamas militant, but they also admitted that they were aware of a complaint that reported the case that “a person unrelated to the attack was injured.”
