Gaza health authority says hospital attack killed six

An Israeli airstrike on Nasser Hospital in Gaza resulted in six fatalities and multiple injuries, according to the Palestinian health ministry. The attack targeted the surgical wing of the hospital, which is one of the few operational medical facilities in the region. Israel claims the strike was aimed at a high-ranking Hamas terrorist, alleging that the group uses hospitals for military purposes. The ongoing conflict, which escalated on October 7, 2023, has led to significant casualties, with over 74,600 reported deaths in Gaza since the start of Israel's retaliatory offensive. Despite a ceasefire, Israeli attacks continue, resulting in additional casualties.
