Israeli fire kills 11 in Gaza, including six at Nasser Hospital
Israeli fire killed 11 people in Gaza on Thursday, according to health officials, including six people who died in an early-morning bombing at Nasser Hospital in southern Gaza. The hospital strike was reported as the deadliest single attack since Israel’s elections last month. The casualties included a surgeon, adding to the impact on a medical facility already operating amid the conflict.
Nasser Hospital is in the southern part of the Gaza Strip and remains a key setting for emergency treatment and medical work. The attack brought renewed attention to the risks faced by patients and healthcare workers, as well as the vulnerability of hospitals during ongoing Israeli military operations. The available report does not provide further details about the circumstances of the strike, the identities of the other victims or any Israeli explanation. France 24 correspondent Mark Owen spoke with Dr Goher Rahbour, a surgeon working at Nasser Hospital, about the attack and its consequences for staff and patients.
