Six Palestinians were killed and more than 20 others, including medical staff and patients, were injured after an ‘Israeli’ strike directly targeted the second floor of the Yassin Building inside Nasser Medical Complex in Khan Younis, southern Gaza Strip.
Roya News correspondent reported extensive destruction and material damage on the targeted second floor, affecting the recovery department and the men's and women's surgery and internal medicine departments.
The attack sparked widespread panic and fear among patients and displaced people, prompting ambulance crews to evacuate and transport dozens of wounded and injured people amid extremely difficult conditions on the ground.
Nasser Medical Complex is the most prominent healthcare institution and a vital lifeline in the southern Gaza Strip. It bears the greatest burden of treating the wounded and providing medical care to thousands of patients amid the collapse of the healthcare system.
Warnings have increasingly mounted that the hospital could be forced out of service due to repeated attacks by the ‘Israeli’ military on medical facilities.
