In Pictures: At least 17 killed in Israeli airstrikes on school-turn shelter in Gaza

Gaza (Quds News Network)- At least 17 people were killed in Israeli airstrikes on a school sheltering displaced Palestinians in central Gaza on Saturday.

Gaza’s Government Media Office said many others were injured in the attack on the Hamama school in the Sheikh Radwan neighborhood in Gaza City.

“Bodies are everywhere and the medics are retrieving them and body parts everywhere … it’s a big massacre.”

Local sources reported that at least three bombs were dropped on the school as rescuers and volunteers inside the facility were trying to help people escape from under the rubble, destroying the facility completely.

Al Jazeera’s Anas al-Sharif was reporting on the Israeli attack on the school.

“While we were documenting the massacre inside this school, the displaced people received calls from the Israeli military ordering them to evacuate the building immediately, because it was going to be targeted again,” he said.

“Bodies are everywhere and the medics are retrieving them and body parts everywhere … it’s a big massacre.”
