Attacks appear after five patients died from causing a power cut at the hospital located in Gaza
An Israeli attack on a large scale against Nasser Hospital in Gaza caused the death of at least 15 people, including three journalists, one of whom worked for Reuters, according to the agency, citing Palestinian health officials.
Image reporter Hussam Al-Masri, one of the journalists killed in the attacks according to the same sources, worked for Reuters. The photographer hatem Khaled, also hired by the same company, was injured, according to the same source.
The Israeli Army and the Prime Minister’s Office did not comment on the attacks.
The attacks occurred a week after five other patients in the same hospital, located in the Khan Youis region, died after an Israelite operation caused the unit’s power loss, according to the Hamas -controlled Gaza Health Ministry. A situation that the World Health Organization (WHO) considered it to be “deeply alarming”.
In a statement issued on Friday morning, the ministry said the Nasser Medical Complex was “without electricity, water, food and heating,” after the offensive launched on August 15 by Israel’s Defense Forces (IDF), which also resulted in the detention of several people.
