An Israeli air strike has killed 28 people and injured dozens at the European Hospital in Khan Younis, a spokesman for the Hamas-run civil defence agency has said.
Israeli warplanes dropped six bombs simultaneously on the Gaza hospital, hitting both its inner courtyard and surrounding area, according to local sources.
The Israeli military said it had conducted a "precise strike" on "Hamas terrorists in a command and control centre" which it claimed was beneath the hospital.
A freelance journalist working for the BBC in Gaza was among those injured in the air strike, and is now in a stable condition after receiving medical attention.
The strike at European Hospital resulted in several deep craters inside the hospital compound, which buried several vehicles including part of a large bus.
