CNN —At least 30 people were killed and dozens injured after Israeli airstrikes hit two schools in the Al-Nasr neighborhood in Gaza, according to the Palestinian Civil Defense.
Mahmoud Basal, a spokesperson for the Palestinian Civil Defense, told CNN that the majority of the bodies recovered are women and children.
Palestinian officials told CNN that Israel did not give civilians any warning before the airstrikes occurred.
A local journalist told CNN that the buildings, which were adjacent to each other, housed hundreds of displaced people, primarily women and children.
Videos obtained by CNN from the area show extensive destruction and dead bodies in a schoolyard following the Israeli strike.
