The Euro-Mediterranean Human Rights Monitor said that Israel committed a new tent massacre in Rafah in the southern Gaza Strip on Tuesday, less than 30 hours after the horrific first massacre carried out near UNRWA stores, adding that the number of martyrs in the city surged to 82, including 18 women and 15 children, in less than 100 hours after the International Court of Justice (ICJ) had issued a ruling demanding Israel to stop its attack on the city.

The Euro-Med added in a statement, “We documented the martyrdom of 7 civilians, including 4 women after Israeli warplanes bombed once again the tents of the displaced in the Tal Al-Sultan area, northwest of Rafah.”

It stated that all the victims of the new massacre were from the families of Abu Jarad and Tanboura, who were forcibly displaced from Gaza and the northern Gaza governorates.

The Human rights organization pointed out that the new attack took place in the same area in which Israeli warplanes bombed the tents of the displaced last Sunday evening, leading to the martyrdom of 45 Palestinians, including 9 children, 12 women and 3 elderly.
