Israel-Gaza war: Military storms hospital in Gaza City – reports of dead and injured. Israel has long accused Hamas of using hospitals as shelters.

The Islamist group denies this. Hamas said the Israeli military shelled the hospital building without caring for patients, medical staff or refugees seeking protection there. According to the health authority in the Gaza Strip, a fire has broken out. People are trapped in operating rooms and the emergency room. Communication with the hospital was lost. "It is impossible to save anyone because the fire is so fierce," the authorities said in a statement.
