Thirteen Palestinians, most of them children and women, have been killed after Israeli jets attacked a central Gaza school, where displaced people were staying, according to the Palestinian news agency Wafa.
Local sources told the agency that Israel’s warplanes bombed al-Jaouni School in the city of Nuseirat, reporting that dozens of others have been injured.
Over the past hour, ambulances have not stopped carrying injured Palestinians to Al-Aqsa Hospital, eyewitnesses said.
"We’re talking about at least four Palestinians in every ambulance that arrived here,” they said.
Most of the ambulances were directed straight away to the part [of the hospital] where families of killed Palestinians can say their last goodbyes.
"We saw heartbreaking scenes, including a teenager who could not believe that his father was killed as he said his last goodbye, crying to his father. We also saw here in the morgue of the Al-Aqsa Hospital decapitated Palestinians and others who had been struck into pieces.” (Agencies)
