At least 24 people were killed and 93 others wounded when Israeli air strikes targeted a mosque and a school sheltering displaced people in the central Gaza Strip early Sunday morning, the Hamas-run Gaza government media office said.

The strikes on the mosque and the school, near the Al-Aqsa Hospital in Deir al-Balah in the central Gaza Strip, came as the conflict between Israel and Hamas in the enclave approaches its first anniversary.

The Israeli military said in a statement that it conducted "precise strikes on Hamas terrorists" who were operating within command and control centers embedded in Ibn Rushd School and the Shuhada al-Aqsa Mosque in the area of Deir al Balah.
