KHAN YOUNIS: An Israeli airstrike hit the fourth floor of southern Gaza’s main hospital Monday, killing at least 15 people, Gaza’s health ministry said.
The ministry said the victims on the fourth floor of Nasser Hospital were killed in a double-tap strike — one missile hitting first, then another moments later as rescue crews arrived.
The victims of the strike included four journalists, Palestinian health officials said.
Cameraman Hossam Al-Masri, who was killed in the strike, was a contractor for Reuters. Photographer Hatem Khaled, who was also a Reuters contractor, was wounded, the officials said.
Al Jazeera also confirmed photojournalist, Mohammad Salama, was killed in the hospital strike.
