At least 90 Palestinians have been killed in an Israeli strike on a school in Gaza, according to local officials.
Gaza Civil Defense said the Al-Tabi’in school was housing displaced Palestinians in the Al-Daraj neighborhood in the eastern part of Gaza City when it was hit overnight into Saturday. “We recovered at least 90 people who had been killed,” spokesperson Mahmoud Basal told CNN, adding that “many of them are torn apart, many are still unidentified.
As of early July, nearly 2 million people had been displaced in the enclave – almost its entire population, according to figures from the United Nations. Israel launched the military offensive on October 7, after militant group Hamas attacked southern Israel. At least 1,200 people were killed, and more than 250 others abducted in the Hamas-led assault, according to Israeli authorities. A doctor working in a nearby hospital earlier said at least 50 people had been killed in Saturday’s strike.
