Israel-Hamas War: 500 Killed In Israeli Strike On Gaza Hospital, Says Palestinian Officials

An Israeli strike on a hospital in Gaza has reportedly resulted in the deaths of at least 500 people, according to Palestinian officials.

However, the Israeli Army has stated that the cause of the incident is not yet known, and they are investigating the details.

In addition to the hospital strike, an Israeli airstrike also hit a United Nations-run school in central Gaza, where approximately 4,000 people were seeking shelter. This attack resulted in the deaths of at least six people.

The UNRWA Commissioner-General, Philippe Lazzarini, expressed concerns about the safety of facilities in Gaza, stating that “no place is safe” anymore, including UNRWA facilities.

While the Israeli military has insisted that they are not targeting civilians, they have indicated their intent to target Hamas when identified.

Amid the escalating violence, around 600,000 people have fled the northern Gaza Strip for the south in response to Israeli military warnings.

President Joe Biden of the United States is planning to visit Israel to hear about the country’s plans for a potential ground attack in Gaza.
