Deadly Israeli Air Strike Targets Gaza Hospital, Claims Lives of Dozens

A recent Israeli air strike on a hospital in Gaza has resulted in multiple fatalities and injuries, local sources report.


An Israeli air strike on the European Gaza hospital in Khan Younis has reportedly killed at least six individuals and injured many others. According to local officials, six bombs were dropped simultaneously by Israeli warplanes on the facility, impacting both its inner courtyard and neighboring areas. The Israeli military defended the assault by asserting that it was a "precise strike" aimed at a Hamas base allegedly located beneath the hospital premises. The injured and deceased were swiftly transferred to Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis where, according to medical sources and eyewitnesses, further bombardment had earlier struck the emergency department. This second attack caused significant damage, resulting in numerous deep craters within the hospital grounds and burying various vehicles, including a bus. Reports from Israeli media have indicated that the intended target of the air strike was Mohammed Sinwar, a senior Hamas figure and the younger brother of Yahya Sinwar, a former leader of Hamas in Gaza.
