An Israeli strike hit Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis, Gaza, killing at least five Palestinians, according to Gaza’s civil defence agency. Al Jazeera reported the agency put the death toll at at least six.
The BBC said the strike hit the hospital’s surgery department, injuring at least 20 people and causing extensive damage, citing a spokesperson. Al Jazeera described the target as the hospital’s intensive care unit. The reports did not reconcile the differing accounts of the affected department or death toll.
