Dozens reportedly killed in Israeli strike on Gaza


“The death toll is now between 90 to 100 and there are dozens more wounded,” agency spokesman Mahmud Bassal told AFP news agency.

“Three Israeli rockets hit the school that was housing displaced Palestinians.”

Earlier in a Telegram post he described the scene as a “horrific massacre” saying crews were trying to control a fire in order to rescue the wounded and retrieve bodies.

Israel’s miltary said it had “precisely struck Hamas terrorists operating within a Hamas command and control centre embedded in the Al-Taba’een school”.

Earlier this week, the Israel Defense Forces said they had targeted Hamas “command and control centres” within two schools in Gaza City.
