An Israeli airstrike on a UN school sheltering displaced Palestinians has killed more than 30 people in central Gaza.
The Israeli military said Hamas were operating from the al-Sardi School in Nuseirat, run by the United Nations agency for Palestinian refugees known as UNRWA.
Video footage showed Palestinians hauling away bodies after the attack, which took place at a sensitive moment in mediated talks on a ceasefire that would involve releasing hostages held by Hamas and some of the Palestinians held in Israeli jails.
The war in Gaza was catalysed by a Hamas attack in southern Israel on 7 October, which killed 1,200 Israelis and saw more than 250 people taken hostage. The air and ground assault launched in response by Israel has killed more than 36,000 Palestinians, according to health officials in the Hamas-run enclave, and left the majority of Gaza’s 2.3 million population without a home.
