An Israeli airstrike in northern Gaza has reportedly struck a hospital operated by the UN agency for Palestinian refugees.
About 19 people were killed, including nine minors, and others were injured in the strike on Jabalia today, local media reported.
An Israeli military spokesman said the claim was under investigation.
NAN reports that the internally displaced people were present near the hospital and fire broke out in the building.
Meanwhile, in another attack in Gaza, four people were killed, while rescue teams in Khan Younis recovered the bodies of 12 people, including women and children, from the rubble, the report added.
Last month, the Israeli military hit targets across Gaza, ending a weeks-long standoff over extending the ceasefire that halted fighting between Isreal and Palestinian group Hamas in January.
Following the strikes, the Head of the UN’s humanitarian affairs bureau, Tom Fletcher, reacted to the dreadful news of Israel’s deadly attacks on Gaza.
Fletcher, in a tweet on X, called on everyone with influence to stop the attacks.
