Palestinian Territories – The health ministry in Hamas-run Gaza said an Israeli strike on Saturday on a school where displaced people were sheltering killed 16 people.
The ministry, which condemned the strike as an “odious massacre”, said another 50 injured were taken to hospital from Al-Jawni school at Nuseirat in central Gaza.
The Israeli military made no immediate comment when approached by AFP.
The Hamas-run government’s press office said there were 7,000 people sheltering at the school.
Earlier, paramedics said 10 people, including three journalists, died in a strike on a house in Nuseirat.
The UN agency for Palestinian refugees, UNRWA, said two of its workers were killed in a strike at Al-Bureij in central Gaza. The agency has a major food warehouse in the district.
“Absolutely no place in the Gaza Strip is safe,” said civil defence spokesman Mahmud Bassal.
Israel has carried out a military offensive that has killed at least 38,098 people in Gaza, also mostly civilians, according to data from the Gaza health ministry.
