Over 100 Palestinian civilians have been killed and dozens more injured early this morning following an Israeli airstrike on the At-Tabe’een School in the Daraj neighborhood of Gaza City.
Palestinian sources reported that the school, which was housing displaced families, was hit by Israeli warplanes while residents were performing the dawn prayers.
The sources added that the shelling resulted in the death and injury of most of the displaced people in the school.
Rescue and civil defense teams have been unable to recover all the bodies of the martyrs, with fears that the number of casualties may increase.
Rescue teams explained that most of the injuries transferred to the Arab National Hospital are in very critical condition. There are large amounts of body parts and mutilated bodies inside the hospital that have not been identified.
The ongoing Israeli aggression on Gaza since October 7, 2023, has so far resulted in 39,699 documented Palestinian fatalities, mostly women and children, in addition to 91,722 injuries.
Thousands of victims remain trapped under rubble, inaccessible to emergency and civil defense teams due to Israeli attacks.
