Casualties from the strike have been brought to Nasser hospital in Khan
Younis
At least 29 Palestinians have been killed and dozens wounded in an
Israeli air strike on a camp for displaced people outside a school in southern
Gaza, hospital officials say.
Gaza's Hamas-run health ministry said the strike had hit next to the
gate of al-Awda school in the town of Abasan al-Kabira, east of the city of
Khan Younis.
The Israeli military said it had used "precise munition" to
target a "terrorist from Hamas' military wing" who, it said, had
taken part in the 7 October attack on Israel.
It said it was "looking into the reports that civilians were
harmed" adjacent to al-Awda school, which houses displaced people from the
eastern villages of Khan Younis.
The incident comes a week
after the Israeli military ordered civilians to evacuate Abasan al-Kabira and
other areas of eastern Khan Younis, prompting tens of thousands to flee.
