Israel bombs displacement tents in Gaza hospital
Rescue crews are scrambling to put out fires at the scene of a deadly Israeli strike on tents housing displaced Palestinians in Deir el-Balah, central Gaza. Earlier, we reported that Israeli fighter jets had bombed the tents located inside the grounds of Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital.
Medical sources at the scene said fires have broken out, with the attack causing an as yet unknown number of deaths and injuries.

Israeli military claims it struck Hamas command centre in Gaza hospital
The Israeli military has claimed, without providing evidence, that it struck “terrorists who were working in a command and control complex that was established in an area previously known as the al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital”, following its latest attack on displaced Palestinians.
The Israeli military has claimed, as it routinely does after attacks against civilian infrastructure in Gaza, that Hamas operatives were using the hospital to “plan and carry out terrorist operations” against Israeli forces and territory.
‘Twenty to 30 tents’ completely destroyed as fire rages in Gaza hospital
It is an extreme fire that keeps spreading. Civil defence members had to be called and dispatched from other areas in central Gaza after working all day long in the Bureij refugee camp, so for an hour, there were no rescue crews at the hospital.
Someone inside the hospital described loud explosions and the fire spread right away because of what looks like incendiary bombs being used. The fact that these tents are made of plastic, nylon and pieces of wood makes the fire spread quickly as well.
We’re talking about 20 to 30 tents that have been completely destroyed, completely burned down. There were many people inside the tents as the fire spread who were not saved.
The report that I’m receiving right now is that the fire is still spreading and the situation is quite chaotic. We’re looking at the large number [of fatalities] as these tents are close to each other, back-to-back and set up in a small space inside the hospital court yard.
