GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip — Palestinians were shaken on the evening of Nov. 17 after a fire that erupted in a residential building that the Abu Raya family owns in Jabaliya refugee camp, in the northern Gaza Strip, killing 21 people including eight children.
The family was celebrating the return of one of its members from abroad on the top floor of the apartment building when the fire broke out, burning down the entire apartment and killing everyone inside, mostly women and children.
