Israeli Airstrike on Gaza Hospital Kills Four, Wounds Multiple

An Israeli airstrike struck a structure at Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis, southern Gaza, in the early hours of Thursday, according to statements from Gaza's civil defence authority. At least four people were confirmed killed in the strike, with several others sustaining injuries.

Nasser Hospital, one of Gaza's largest medical facilities, has been a focal point amid the ongoing humanitarian crisis in the territory. The facility has faced significant strain in recent months amid the broader conflict.

Details about the exact target of the airstrike and the circumstances surrounding the strike remained limited. Gaza's civil defence officials did not immediately clarify whether the strike was aimed at a specific structure within the hospital complex or provide further information about those injured in the incident.

The airstrike adds to the mounting toll of civilian casualties reported across Gaza in recent weeks. International organisations have expressed concern over the humanitarian impact of military operations in the densely populated territory.
