'Israeli' drones strike Aqsa Hospital for 11th time, causing major damage
In a fresh attack on Gaza’s collapsing healthcare system, 'Israeli' drones bombed the roof of Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital in central Gaza on Wednesday, causing significant structural damage, according to the Government Media Office in Gaza.
This marks the 11th strike on the same hospital since the beginning of the war, highlighting what officials call a systematic campaign to destroy the strip's medical infrastructure. No casualties were immediately reported.
In a statement, the office described the attack as a blatant violation of international law, particularly the Geneva Conventions, which mandate protection of medical facilities and personnel during armed conflict.
Three drones were reportedly used in the latest strike, triggering panic among patients and medical staff. Previous attacks on the hospital occurred at various points from January 2024 to April 2025.
The media office held Israeli Occupation, along with the United States and other supporting countries, fully responsible for what it called war crimes and acts of genocide. It urged the UN and international human rights organizations to act swiftly to protect Gaza’s remaining hospitals and humanitarian workers.
This incident adds to the long list of attacks on Gaza’s health sector, which has included the bombing of hospitals, ambulances, and medical teams, further crippling relief efforts amid a worsening humanitarian catastrophe.
