Israeli attacks have killed more than 50 people in the Gaza Strip since dawn on Monday, including 36 in a school-turned-shelter that was struck as people slept, setting their belongings ablaze, according to local health officials.

The attack on the Fahmi al-Jarjawi School in the Daraj neighbourhood of Gaza City also wounded dozens of people, said Fahmy Awad, head of the Gaza Ministry of Health’s emergency service. He said a father and his five children were among the dead.

The al-Shifa and al-Ahli hospitals in Gaza City confirmed the overall toll.

Awad said the school was hit three times while people slept. Footage circulating online showed rescue workers struggling to extinguish fires and recovering charred remains.

Palestinian Civil Defence spokesman Mahmoud Basal told the AFP news agency that the school had been sheltering “hundreds” of people, adding that those killed were mostly children and women.
