The Israeli military killed more civilians and journalists in attacks across Gaza, especially its besieged north.
The Israeli military has killed several dozen Palestinians across the Gaza Strip in a string of attacks as it allowed a small amount of aid into the northern part of the enclave, the first after over a month of intensified siege.
Medics quoted by the Palestinian Wafa news agency said Friday evening that at least 40 people were killed across Gaza since dawn, including 24 in the north.
At least six Palestinians were killed in the targeting of the Fahd al-Sabah school sheltering displaced people in the Tuffah neighbourhood on Saturday, according to the Al Jazeera team on the ground in Deir el-Balah.
Two local journalists, a pregnant woman and a child, were among the dead. The Israeli military used a common justification by saying it targeted “terrorists” but did not provide evidence or details.
Five more were killed in the Shujayea neighbourhood of Gaza City, while Israeli sniper fire killed at least one person in the Zeitoun neighbourhood.
