The Health Ministry in Gaza reports that the European Hospital in Khan Younis has started treating patients again over two months after being rendered inoperable as a result of Israeli military attacks, Al Jazeera reports.

Dr Mohammed Zaqout, the director-general of hospitals at the ministry, led a delegation that examined the readiness of emergency, radiology, pharmacy, catheterisation, cardiology, pediatric and administrative departments.

The delegation also confirmed that during the first hours since the hospital restarted operations, two surgeries were conducted by medical teams.
