From Reuters, “Hundreds dead in Gaza hospital bombing, local authorities say”:
An Israeli air strike killed hundreds of people at a Gaza City hospital on Tuesday, health authorities in the Hamas-run enclave said, and the United Nation said an Israeli strike also hit one of its schools being used as a shelter.
A Gaza civil defence chief said on Al-Jazeera television that more than 300 people were killed at Al-Ahli al-Arabi Hospital. A Gaza Health Ministry official said at least 500 people were killed and injured. Both departments are under the Hamas-run government.
Civil defence spokesman Mahmoud Bassal described the bombing as a “massacre,” the Middle East Eye reports.
“What is happening is collective punishment,” Bassal said. “When will the world stand up for Gaza? This is the highest level of aggression from Israel. The floor of the hospital is covered in dead bodies and we don’t have anyone to pick them up.”
