At least four people have been killed in an Israeli air strike on the courtyard of the Al-Aqsa Hospital in Deir el-Balah in central Gaza, according to the World Health Organization and a hospital official.
At least four people were killed and 17 others were wounded in the air strike, WHO chief Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said in a post on X on Sunday.
Khaled al-Dakran, a spokesman for the hospital, said several journalists were among the wounded in the attack. Israel’s military said the attack targeted a command centre operated by the Palestinian Islamic Jihad armed group.
The Government Media Office in Gaza said the air strike hit a tent where displaced people were sheltering and journalists were working. (Agencies) page 5
