Israeli air strikes kill two Palestinians and damage Gaza medical warehouses
Israeli forces killed two Palestinians in Gaza City and hit two medicine storage warehouses near Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital, damaging additional facilities.
Israeli air operations on Saturday killed two Palestinians in the Sheikh Radwan area of Gaza City, with the military identifying the victims as Hamas fighters. In a later strike on Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital in Deir al-Balah, two warehouses that held essential medicines were destroyed, while two additional warehouses and the hospital's outpatient clinic suffered damage. The hospital reported that the destroyed stock included dialysis supplies and gauze for wound treatment.
No immediate injuries were reported from the hospital attack, though displaced residents nearby had been sheltering close to the facility. A doctor at the hospital described the incident as a grave crime by the occupying forces. The strikes occurred amid ongoing uncertainty about a potential Hamas disarmament agreement.
Why it matters
The attacks raise concerns about civilian casualties and the loss of critical medical supplies in the Gaza conflict.
