Zahr al-Waheidi, head of the Department of Records at the Ministry of Health of Gaza, as the AP said, said that the initial strike hit the operating rooms on the upper floor of housing and doctors’ residence and killed at least two people. The second strike, which hit the staircase, killed another 18. Approximately 80 people were injured, including many in the hospital courtyard, al-Waheidi said.
Dr. Ahmed Al-Farra, head of the Pediatric Department in Nasser Hospital, added an attack like a “double Tap”, said the first strike hit the top floor of the building, followed a few minutes later the second projectile when journalists and rescuers plunged on the outer staircase.
According to the Israeli media, the soldiers fired two artillery shells and focused on what suspicion that the roof was Hamas for watching. Reporters from various stores here regularly found live television shots.
Meanwhile, US President Donald Trump predicted that the war could see the “convincing end” into two to three weeks and added, “It must get it because between hunger and all other problems – worse than hunger, death, pure death – people (are) killed.”
