IDF Strikes Kill Dozens In Gaza, Israel Slams Deadly Hezbollah Rocket Attack On ‘Muslim Town’ – News18
Israeli forces reportedly laid siege to Gaza’s Kamal Adwan Hospital, detaining hundreds of staff patients and displaced people as they targeted suspected militant sites. Palestinian officials claimed dozens of civilians including children were killed in Israeli strikes. The IDF cited “intelligence information” on terrorist activities in the area and said it previously facilitated patient and staff evacuations from the hospital, maintaining emergency systems throughout. Meanwhile, the WHO expressed deep concern over lost communication with hospital staff amid intensifying strikes. In Khan Yunis, Gaza’s civil defence agency reported air and drone strikes killed dozens of civilians including children, with bodies seen laid out in Nasser Hospital. UN High Commissioner Volker Türk condemned the escalation, describing it as one of Gaza’s “darkest moments” and warning of potential atrocity crimes due to continued bombings and mass displacement. Amid the violence, two Israelis were killed by Hezbollah rocket fire in Majd al-Krum, prompting Israeli National Security Minister Ben-Gvir to vow continued strikes against Hezbollah.
