September 7, 2025: Israeli Strikes on Gaza Schools and Homes Kill Dozens
Gaza has once again turned into a scene of devastation. On September 7, 2025, Israeli airstrikes targeted schools, tents, and civilian homes, leaving dozens of Palestinians dead and hundreds injured. Overnight and into the morning, several neighborhoods were struck, reducing residential buildings to rubble. The attacks also hit makeshift shelters and schools where displaced families had sought safety, believing they were secure from violence.
According to updated reports, at least 87 Palestinians were killed in the last 24 hours, with more than 400 wounded. Among the victims are a significant number of women and children who either died instantly under the bombardment or were buried beneath collapsed structures. In one strike alone, 21 civilians were killed when bombs struck schools and tents. Adding to the tragedy, at least six people, including children, died of starvation due to severe shortages of food and water across Gaza. This reflects the worsening humanitarian catastrophe beyond the immediate effects of the bombing.
The streets of Gaza now bear the marks of destruction and despair. Ambulances rush to collect casualties, but hospitals are overwhelmed. With little medicine, limited equipment, and a crippling power shortage, doctors warn that countless more lives remain at risk. Without immediate international aid, the death toll could rise dramatically.
These strikes have intensified fears not only within Gaza but also across the world. Human rights groups have repeatedly called for an end to the bombings and for the protection of innocent civilians. Yet the reality on the ground shows an escalation, as the bombardment grows heavier each day, leaving ordinary families with nowhere to hide.
Today in Gaza, every family mourns its losses, every street bears the scars of attacks, and every child grows up surrounded by fear. This crisis highlights the urgent need for the global community to act, not just issue statements. Silence and inaction only prolong the suffering of a people already on the brink of famine and despair.
The people of Gaza continue to hold on to hope and resilience, but the question remains: how many more lives must be lost before the world steps in to stop the bloodshed?
