Israeli military strikes hospital in Gaza twice
SUMMARY: Israeli forces struck Nasser Hospital in Gaza twice, killing at least 20, including first responders and journalists. The first strike hit the hospital’s upper level in Khan Yunis, and a second strike occurred as rescue crews arrived. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called it a “tragic mishap” and said a thorough investigation is underway. The IDF confirmed the strike, expressing regret for civilian harm and denying targeting journalists, blaming Hamas for using civilian infrastructure as shields. Despite a proposed ceasefire reportedly accepted by Hamas, Israel continues its offensive in Gaza City. The Israeli Security Cabinet will discuss ceasefire talks amid growing pressure to end the war.
Israeli forces launched a strike on a hospital in Gaza and then as first responders and journalists arrived at the scene, they struck the hospital again. At least 20 are dead after the two hospital air strikes.
