“It’s a massacre”: Palestinians grieve following Israeli strike on Jabalia refugee camp

Palestinians and medics rushed to the Jabalia refugee camp in Gaza on Wednesday following an Israeli airstrike.

Wednesday's attack followed Israeli strikes that hit the densely-populated camp a day earlier. At least 195 people were killed in the attacks, according to the Hamas-run government media office.

“We were praying in the mosque when we heard the explosion and (came out) to find that everything was gone,” said one eyewitness. “It was a massacre.”

Israel has said in a statement that Wednesday’s strike on Jabalia hit a Hamas command and control complex and killed the head of the Islamist group’s anti-tank missile unit.

The Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights said in a statement to its social media that it is concerned the Israeli strikes on Jabalia could amount to a war crime.
