30 Palestinians killed in Israeli air strike on Gaza school

Israeli air strikes have hit yet another Gaza school complex sheltering refugees. At least 30 Palestinians were killed in the attack – which Israel said targeted a Hamas command and control centre.

The girls’ school in Deir Al-Balah was also being used as a field hospital. Further south, the Israeli military has told Palestinians again to evacuate areas in southern Khan Younis, where it says it is planning an operation against Hamas: telling them to go to the so-called humanitarian zone in Al-Mawasi.

The UN says 9 out of 10 people have now been made homeless in Gaza. A warning, you may find some of the images distressing.
