Israeli Airstrike Targets Nasser Medical Complex in Khan Yunis

The Israeli military reported an airstrike on the Nasser Medical Complex in Khan Yunis, claiming to have killed Mohammed Abu Ismail, identified as the commander of the Hamas brigade in the area. Palestinian sources confirmed that the attack hit the surgical department early Thursday, resulting in at least six deaths—including a physician, a child, and a disabled individual—and injuring dozens more. Hospital director Ahmed Al-Farra stated that the facility’s operating rooms, laboratories, and radiology departments are no longer functional, threatening the healthcare access of approximately one million people. Both Hamas and the Palestinian Islamic Jihad condemned the strike as a war crime, holding the U.S. administration and international bodies accountable for the ongoing targeting of medical facilities.
