ALBAWABA -More than 100 Palestinians were killed and dozens more were injured at dawn on Saturday in Israeli airstrikes, Alaraby reported.

Israeli warplanes directly targeted and bombed displaced Palestinians who were performing the dawn prayer at the "Al-Tabeen" school in the Al-Daraj neighborhood in the center of Gaza City.

A statement released by the government media office in Gaza: "The Israeli occupation army committed a massacre inside the Al-Tabeen school in Gaza City, which resulted in more than 100 martyrs and dozens of injuries."

The office added: "Due to the horror of the massacre and a large number of deaths, the medical crews, civil defense, relief and emergency teams have not been able to recover the bodies of all the people so far."

Hamas also decried the horrific attack against displaced Palestinians. It said: "The massacre of the Al-Tabeen School is a horrific crime and a dangerous escalation in the series of crimes committed in Gaza by neo-Nazis," according to Al Jazeera report.

Horrific footage was shared on the X platform showing dozens of bodies following the Israeli airstrikes that targeted displaced Palestinians in Gaza City.
