At least 10 people have been killed in an Israeli attack that sparked a fire at a school sheltering displaced people in Gaza City, including one child who was burned to death in the blaze.

The Israeli military accused Palestinian militant groups of exploiting civilians and civil properties for military purposes, an allegation Hamas and other factions deny.

At least 27 Palestinians were killed and several others wounded in the latest Israeli airstrikes across Gaza on Saturday, sources and officials said. In one of the attacks, an Israeli airstrike targeted a cafe in the city of Deir al-Balah, central Gaza Strip, killing four Palestinians, a medical source told Anadolu.
