An Israeli airstrike on a school sheltering displaced Palestinians in eastern Gaza killed over 100 people and injured many others on August 10, 2024. The attack occurred as the victims were performing dawn prayers, according to Gaza's Hamas-run government. This is the latest in a series of strikes on Gaza schools, with 62 people killed in similar attacks last week. Israel claims the strikes target Hamas "command control centres" operating within civilian buildings. The 10-month conflict has resulted in over 40,000 Palestinian deaths since it began following Hamas's October 7 attack on Israel.
