Airwars assessment

On 13th November 2024, an alleged Israeli quadcopter/drone attack on the Al Mawhoubin Gifted School housing displaced people in the Sheikh Radwan neighborhood, west of Gaza City injured three civilians.

The incident was reported by Al Jazeera who also shared photos of Red Crescent volunteers transporting an injured man to the hospital in a stretcher, as well as a second photograph showing a man with a wounded foot being aided by a volunteer. A tweet from @Sa7at Palestine reported that a bomb from a “quadcopter” struck the school, while other sources referred to a drone or an aircraft dropping a bomb.

The majority of sources, including @AJA_Palestine, reported that three people were injured, while other sources only mentioned “wounded” without providing a toll.

Where sources identified the belligerent, all sources attributed the attack to the Israeli military.

The local time of the incident is unknown.
