The Gaza Ministry of Health said that 90 people were killed in the genocidal Israel offensive, half of whom were women and children.
The ministry added that the number of injuries that resulted from this attack rose to 300.
The area where the atrocity was committed had been designated by the Israeli regime as a so-called “safe” zone.
According to witnesses, a series of airstrikes were conducted by Israel’s F16 warplanes that targeted a camp for displaced Palestinians west of the city with more than nine consecutive missiles.
“This was followed by quadcopter drones opening fire on ambulances and civil defense teams as soon as they arrived,” they said.
The attacks, which took place around 10:30 a.m., initially resulted in the killing of dozens of civilians who were subsequently transported to the Nasser Medical Complex, with over 100 others injured, some critically.
Rescue teams continue to retrieve dozens of casualties from the sites of the bombings.
Local health authorities warned that the region's hospitals are incapable of accommodating a large number of casualties because Gaza's healthcare infrastructure has been decimated by Israeli occupation forces.
Israel's strikes have killed at least 38,345 people in Gaza, mostly civilians, according to data from Gaza's health ministry.
The Gaza government media office said in a statement that Israel "spreads false news, lies, and rumors to divert attention from the horrific crime in Khan Younis and a failed attempt to justify the terrible massacre."
