Palestinians mourn for relatives killed in the Israeli bombardment of the Gaza Strip, at a hospital in Deir al-Balah, on August. 10, 2024.

On day 309 of the genocide in Gaza, the toll of casualties has risen to 39,790 Palestinians killed and 92,002 injured by the Israeli occupation amid the IOF's brutal onslaught, according to the daily report published by the Health Ministry in Gaza on Saturday.

"Israel" committed three massacres over the past 24 hours, killing 40 Palestinians and injuring 140 others.

While some were transported to partially functioning hospitals, many victims remain trapped beneath the rubble with rescue crews being unable to reach them.

This comes after a horrific Israeli massacre in Gaza City on Saturday at dawn, which claimed the lives of more than 100 Palestinians seeking shelter in a school.

The Government Media Office in Gaza stated that "Israel" committed a horrendous massacre at the Al-Tabieen school in Gaza City. "Due to the enormity of the massacre and the rising number of victims, medical and civil defense teams have not yet been able to retrieve all the bodies," it said in a statement.

"Israeli occupation forces targeted civilians at Al-Tabieen school during morning prayers with three missiles, each weighing 2,000 pounds."

The media office held both "Israel" and the US administration responsible, pointing out that the Israeli occupation army launched a direct attack on the school, where many displaced individuals who had sought refuge were performing morning prayers, which led to a massive number of martyrs. More than 300 people were present at the time of the Israeli bombing, the media office added.
