Gaza hospital damaged in Israeli strike: civil defence

Gaza’s civil defence agency said an Israeli airstrike destroyed parts of a hospital early Sunday after Israel seized a corridor in the war-battered Palestinian territory and said it planned to expand its military offensive.

There were no reports of casualties in the strike and the Israeli military told AFP they were looking into the incident.

The civil defence agency in the Hamas-run territory said Israel’s air force targeted a building of the Al-Ahli hospital, also known as the Baptist or Ahli Arab hospital, in Gaza City after midnight.

The airstrike came “minutes after the (Israeli) army’s warning to evacuate this building of patients, the injured and their companions”, the agency said in a statement.

“The bombing led to the destruction of the surgery building and the oxygen generation station for the intensive care units,” it added.বিস্তারিত
