Over 500 killed as Israel strikes Baptist Hospital in Gaza: Health Ministry

By Awad Rajoub

GAZA CITY, Palestine (AA) – Over 500 people were killed in an Israeli airstrike on Baptist Hospital in Gaza on Tuesday, Health Ministry spokesman Ashraf al-Qudra told Anadolu.

Footage showed corpses scattered across the hospital grounds.

The airstrike comes on day 11 in the current conflict, with a growing international chorus of non-governmental groups and world leaders saying the Israeli bombing campaign on the besieged Gaza Strip – including healthcare facilities, homes, and houses of worship – violates international law and may constitute a war crime.

Hamas said Israel's targeting a hospital is "genocide."
