On December 2, 2024, a girl was killed and another person was injured by tank fire allegedly from the Israeli military which hit Halima al-Sadia School, in Jabalia Al-Nazla in the north of the Gaza strip.

Multiple local sources, including @qudsn, reported that a girl was killed when Israeli tanks fired on Halima al-Sadia School.

Most sources attributed the attack to an Israeli military operation with tanks, with some sources mentioning that the tanks shot “at” the school. A Facebook post from Waleed Abo Mashaikha stated that the attack was in fact a drone strike and it killed one person and injured another – the report of an injury was not found among other local sources, but was also referred to as an “update” by the source.
