More than 100 Palestinians were killed and dozens injured in an Israeli airstrike on a school in Gaza's Daraj district, reports have emerged. The school that was attacked housed displaced civilians. The place was used as a shelter for displaced civilians.
Displaced Palestinians lived in the school compound
Gaza's civil defense agency claimed that more than 100 people were killed and dozens injured in an Israeli attack on a school in Gaza on Saturday morning. “The death toll is between 90 and 100 and dozens are injured,” agency spokesman Mahmoud Bassal said. Three Israeli rockets hit a school where displaced Palestinians live. Gaza's state media office said more than 100 people were killed in the attack.
The attack caused the entire school campus to catch fire
It is being told that the Israeli attack on the school set the entire complex on fire. Rescue operations are currently underway to help the Palestinians trapped in the fire. The agency described the attack as horrific and said that some bodies were set on fire during the attack. This attack comes after Israeli forces attacked two schools in Gaza on Thursday, in which at least 18 people were killed. At that time, the Israeli army said that it had attacked the Hamas command center.
Attack on Hamas terrorists
Following an airstrike on the al-Tabayyin school in the al-Sahbaa area of Gaza City on Saturday, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said it had “targeted Hamas militants located in a Hamas command and control center compound.” “Rescuers have been unable to reach women and children trapped in the fire at the Gaza school because Israeli authorities cut off the water supply to the area,” reports Al Jazeera.
