Media outlets in Gaza report that Marwan Sultan, the director of the Indonesian Hospital in northern Gaza, has been killed in an Israeli strike.

According to the reports, he was killed along with his wife and other relatives when his home in Gaza City was hit.

In the past, the IDF has said that Hamas used the Indonesian Hospital as a base for its terror activities and had fired at Israeli forces from the site. The hospital was cleared by the IDF several weeks ago and is no longer operational.

The IDF has not yet responded to the reports.
