DEIR AL-BALAH, Gaza Strip (AP) — Palestinian medical officials said an Israeli strike on a school sheltering displaced people in Gaza on Thursday killed at least 13 people, with the toll likely to rise.

The Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital confirmed the toll from the strike in the central town of Deir al-Balah. An Associated Press reporter saw ambulances arriving at the hospital.

Residents said the strike targeted a makeshift post of the Hamas-run police inside the shelter.
