The Gaza Health Ministry says an Israeli quadcopter drone has killed Saeed Jouda, a top physician in the north of the territory.

Jouda was previously injured but continued to report to hospitals to treat patients, health authorities said.
“The Ministry of Health reiterates its appeal to all international and human rights institutions to provide protection for hospitals and health teams while they carry out their humanitarian duty,” it said in a statement.
