Six dead in Israel's attack on hospital in southern Gaza

An Israeli airstrike on the Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis resulted in at least six deaths, including a surgeon, and twenty injuries. The Israeli military stated the strike targeted a senior Hamas member and claimed the hospital was used for military operations. They accused Hamas of storing weapons and using hospital facilities for military purposes, but provided no evidence for these claims. Since a ceasefire began last October, Israel has reportedly violated it frequently, with over 1600 Palestinians killed in Israeli attacks, while four Israeli soldiers have died during the same period.
