Israeli air strike targets gate of al-Aqsa Hospital

Just a couple of minutes ago, a strike struck the gate of the hospital a few metres away from where I was standing, Al Jazeera’s Hani Mahmoudreports from Deir el-Balah, Gaza.

Since the early hours of this morning, the skies of the central area, mainly above the hospital, were filled with many drones.

It’s a massive explosion. The dust and debris have covered the main parts of the hospital. This is a road that’s about eight metres wide, and across from the gate, there is a house that was bombed early on in the offensive.

It has been targeted again now and the buzz of these attack drones is still in the sky.
