"This is not the first massacre committed by the occupation against children, women and elders. The occupation is helpless to reach the resistance movement. Each time they commit a massacre and claim that they were attacking leaders of the resistance, but we tell them you are cowards, murderers and criminals, you only kill children and women."

Displaced people sheltering in the area said their tents were torn down by the force of the strike, and described seeing bodies and body parts strewn on the ground.

Israel said Saturday's attack in Khan Younis targeted Hamas military chief Mohammed Deif but it was uncertain whether he had been killed.

Hamas said in a statement that Israeli claims it had targeted leaders of the group were false and aimed at justifying the attack, which was the deadliest Israeli attack in Gaza in weeks.
