Story summary

An Israeli airstrike on Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis, southern Gaza, occurred early on Thursday, November 12, 2026, causing extensive damage to the facility's surgery department. While early reports from the Gaza civil defence service stated at least five people were killed, later reports from the Health Ministry, BBC News, and Al Jazeera confirmed that at least six Palestinians were killed in the strike. Among the deceased was a surgeon identified as Rezik Abushira (or Rezik Abus). The attack wounded between a dozen and 30 people, depending on the reporting source, and left parts of the hospital out of service. The Israeli military stated the strike targeted a "senior Hamas terrorist" and other militants operating within the hospital, though they provided no evidence for these claims. Conversely, hospital staff, international medics, and Gaza's Health Ministry denied the accusation that Hamas was using the facility as a command center. This strike is noted as one of the deadliest single attacks since the October 27 polls.
