Israeli strikes reported in central Gaza; hospital building said hit after warning to leave

Palestinians in Gaza reported multiple IDF strikes in the enclave’s center overnight.

Earlier, the military had warned several neighborhoods in the Nuseirat area to evacuate after a rocket was launched at Israel from the area.

Medics said two Israeli missiles hit a building inside a hospital, destroying the emergency and reception department and damaging other structures.

Health officials at the Al-Ahli Arab Baptist Hospital evacuated the patients from the building after one person said he received a call from someone who identified himself with the Israeli security forces shortly before the attack took place.

No casualties were reported, according to the civil emergency service.

Israel has made no comment on the strike as of yet. It has repeatedly accused terror groups of using various civilian sites including hospitals as bases of operation.
