A new investigation by Al Jazeera‘s Sanad agency has shown that the Israeli air strike targeting civilians in Gaza’s humanitarian zone was carried out using MK-84 bombs, which weigh 2,000 pounds.
At 12:34 AM local time (9:34 GMT), several Israeli missiles struck a refugee camp in the al-Mawasi area, located within the humanitarian zone designated by the Israeli army for displaced civilians — west of Khan Younis in southern Gaza.
