Israel bombs Gaza City hospital

Gaza, Agencies: Israeli strikes kill at least 61 people in the Gaza Strip with the death toll expected to rise, Palestinian health authorities say, including another attack on a hospital in the north’s largest city.

Footage obtained by Al Jazeera reveals the chaos following an Israeli air strike near al-Ahli Arab Hospital in northern Gaza City.

The attack caused widespread panic with people screaming and scrambling for safety. Among the wounded are a toddler and another child, both of whom were being treated at the hospital, as bystanders and family members stood by anxiously.

The ministry has issued a statement in which it said it “condemns the repeated attack” on al-Ahli Arab Hospital (Baptist Hospital) in Gaza City.

At least 40,691 people have been killed and 94,060 wounded in Israel’s war on Gaza. An estimated 1,139 people were killed in Israel during the Hamas-led attacks on October 7.
