At least 29 Palestinians have been killed and dozens wounded in an Israeli air strike on a camp for displaced people outside a school in southern Gaza, hospital officials say.
Gaza’s Hamas-run health ministry said the strike had hit next to the gate of al-Awda school in the town of Abasan al-Kabira, east of the city of Khan Younis.
The Israeli military said it had used "precise munition" to target a "terrorist from Hamas’ military wing" who, it said, had taken part in the 7 October attack on Israel.
It said it was "looking into the reports that civilians were harmed" adjacent to al-Awda school, which houses displaced people from the eastern villages of Khan Younis.
