Palestinian officials said a field hospital sent by Jordan has entered the Gaza Strip, the first since Israel began bombarding the enclave following the October 7 attack by Hamas, AFP reports.

“The hospital will be established in Khan Yunis, to receive the wounded and the sick, under catastrophic conditions which southern hospitals are experiencing, with the influx of hundreds of wounded each day and continued aggressive aerial and artillery strikes,” said Mohammed Zaqout, director general of Gaza hospitals.
