WHO: Over 50 Palestinians injured in Nasser hospital attack

The Israeli attack on Khan Younis's Nasser Medical Complex injured over 50 people, including 'critically ill patients who were already receiving care', WHO chief Tedros Ghebreyesus has said.

The attack on Monday struck the facility's main building where the emergency department, inpatient ward and surgical unit are located, killing at least 20 people, including five journalists.

"While people in #Gaza are being starved, their already limited access to health care is being further crippled by repeated attacks",  Ghebreyesus said in a post on X.

"We cannot say it loudly enough: STOP attacks on health care. Ceasefire now!
