STORYLINE:

At least 90 Palestinians, half of them children and women, were killed after an Israeli airstrike hit tents for displaced people in the southern Gaza Strip city of Khan Younis on Saturday morning, the Gaza-based health authorities said, updating its previous report of at least 71 deaths.

About 300 others were wounded in the raid that took place in the city's Mawasi area, including dozens of children and women, with some sustaining critical injuries, the health authorities said in a brief statement.

Earlier in the day, Israeli state-owned Kan TV news said the target of the Israeli attack was Hamas military chief Mohammed Deif, noting that the army was awaiting the results of the raid.

Hamas has rejected the claim, saying it came in the context of covering up Israel's crimes.

Deif, 58, has been considered one of Israel's most wanted men for many years and was previously injured during several assassination attempts against him.
