More than 90 Palestinians killed in Israeli strike on school and mosque sheltering displaced people, Gaza officials say
People check the damage inside a school which was being used as a temporary shelter for displaced Palestinians in Gaza City, following an Israeli strike on August 10, 2024.
At least 93 Palestinians have been killed in an Israeli strike on a school and mosque in Gaza sheltering displaced people, according to local officials.
Gaza Civil Defense said people were performing dawn prayers at the Al-Tabi’in compound 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. Many of them are torn apart, many are still unidentified,” spokesperson Mahmoud Basal said.
Videos seen by CNN of the aftermath of the strike show a large number of bodies strewn on the ground.
The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) confirmed that it hit the school, saying its air force “precisely struck Hamas terrorists operating within a Hamas command and control center embedded” in the building.
The military also said that before the airstrike, “numerous steps were taken to mitigate the risk of harming civilians, including the use of precise munitions, aerial surveillance, and intelligence information.”
