Gaza Strip – Israeli fire killed 11 people in Gaza on Thursday, six of them in the bombing of Nasser Hospital in southern Gaza early in the day, health officials said, the deadliest single strike since Israel’s elections last month.
The Israeli military confirmed the attack, saying they targeted “the commander of Hamas’s Khan Younis brigade, Muhammad Abu Ismail, and additional terrorists hiding inside of Nasser Hospital.”
The hospital, located in the southern city of Khan Younis, confirmed the six deaths in a statement, while a doctor there said that the targeted building was the surgery ward and that nearly 30 people had been wounded.
