At least 100 Palestinian civilians, including children, were killed at dawn on Saturday after Israeli forces targeted a school in Gaza City whilst displaced people performed morning prayers.

Videos obtained by Middle East Eye showed charred bodies and limbs strewn across a concrete floor, as people scrambled to find their loved ones following the attacks.

Gaza's civil defence agency described the attack as a "horrific massacre," and said three Israeli rockets hit the Tabin school, located in Gaza City's al-Daraj district, whilst Palestinians performed early morning Fajr prayers.

The colonial situation dehumanizes both the colonized and the colonizer. The colonized regain their humanity through resistance; the colonizer can only regain humanity by losing.

Violence is required for the maintenance of an occupation and apartheid, otherwise the people they subjugate would have power.
