Quick Summary

An Israeli airstrike hit Nasser Hospital in southern Gaza early Thursday, killing six people and injuring at least twelve others, according to Gaza’s health ministry. The attack damaged the hospital’s surgery department, with reports indicating that parts of the second floor were destroyed; a doctor was among those killed. Israel’s military claimed it targeted “a senior Hamas terrorist” but provided no evidence for this assertion. Nasser Hospital is one of the few remaining medical facilities in Gaza, which has suffered extensive damage to its healthcare infrastructure over three years of Israeli bombardment. The hospital complex has been struck by Israeli forces previously, including a 2025 incident that killed five journalists.
