The death toll from an Israeli airstrike on a Gaza City school early Saturday has risen to 80, Palestinian health authorities said.
The Israeli military acknowledged the strike on the Tabeen school, claiming it hit a Hamas command centre within the school. Hamas denied that.
Fadel Naeem, director of the al-Ahli hospital in Gaza City, told The Associated Press that the facility received the bodies of 80 people killed in the strike.
He said medical teams identified 70 bodies and they received body parts of at least 10 others.
The school, like almost all those in Gaza, has been used as a shelter for people forced to flee their homes by the war.
