Israeli airstrike hits hospital entrance in Gaza, wounding 10 medics, patients
Deir Al-Balah (Gaza Strip) (AP): An Israeli airstrike hit the northern gate of a field hospital in the Gaza Strip on Tuesday, wounding 10 people, including three medics and seven patients, a spokesman for the hospital said.
The strike hit the Kuwaiti Field Hospital in the Muwasi area, where hundreds of thousands of people have sought shelter in sprawling tent camps.
Saber Mohammed, a spokesman for the hospital, said two of the patients were critically wounded.
There was no immediate comment from the Israeli military.
The military has struck hospitals on several occasions during the 18-month war, accusing Hamas of hiding out in them or using them for military purposes.
Hospital staff have denied the allegations and accused Israel of recklessly endangering civilians and gutting the territory's health system.
On Sunday, Israel struck the last major hospital providing critical care in northern Gaza after ordering an evacuation. A patient died during the evacuation, and the strike severely damaged the emergency room, pharmacy and surrounding buildings, according to Al-Ahli Hospital.
The Episcopal Diocese of Jerusalem, which runs the hospital, condemned the strike.
Israel said it targeted a Hamas command and control centre within the facility, without providing evidence. Hamas denied the allegations
