IDF says it struck Gaza hospital in operation to eliminate senior HAMAS member

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) announced that it had carried out a strike on Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis, in the southern Gaza Strip, targeting a senior HAMAS member and other members of the group.

“HAMAS used the hospital complex as a hub for military and terrorist activities directed against the IDF and Israel, including weapons storage, interrogations and torture, as well as the establishment of command centers. The facilities were also used as observation posts and shelters for Hamas operatives,” the IDF said in a statement.

The IDF added that further information on the outcome of the strike would be released later.
