According to Wafa, dozens of people were also injured in an attack on another school building in the same neighborhood.
Israel's army said that it had attacked a Hamas command center in the second incident. The army was not aware of a second attack on another former school building in the area, the army said on request.
The Israeli forces had taken numerous measures to reduce the danger to civilians before the airstrike. The Hamas members who were attacked had planned attacks on Israel, it added. Israel accuses Hamas of misusing civilian buildings for its own purposes.
None of the claims could initially be independently verified.
