Israel’s military has struck a school near Deir al-Balah, a city in central Gaza, killing at least 30 Palestinians and injuring more than 100, according to the Hamas-run ministry of health.
The Israel Defense Forces (IFF) said on Telegram that a Hamas command and control centre was embedded inside the Khadija School.
The IDF added that Hamas used the compound as a hiding place to direct and plan attacks and store weapons.
Gaza’s health ministry said footage showed the victims were civilians and most of them were children.
The BBC verified a video that shows children among the injured.
