Agency says missile struck citizens in Khan Younis, as Israel reports targeting ‘Hamas terrorist’ after clash with militants
An Israeli strike on Palestinian territory has killed five people including two children, Gaza’s civil defence agency told AFP on Wednesday.
“Five citizens, including two children, killed and others injured, some seriously, as a result of an Israeli missile strike,” in al-Mawasi, west of Khan Younis, civil defence spokesperson Mahmud Bassal told AFP.
The agency said the strike hit near the Kuwaiti field hospital in Khan Younis and “targeted” a shelter camp.
The hospital said the five people killed included two children aged eight and 10, and another 32 people were wounded.
