Israeli forces stormed the main hospital in southern Gaza on Thursday, bringing chaos to hundreds of staff and patients inside, hours after Israeli fire killed a patient and wounded six others inside the complex. Health officials Friday said four people in intensive care died because electricity was cut, stopping oxygen supplies for them. Troops were searching the facility, where the military said it believes the remains of hostages abducted by Hamas might be located. The raid came after troops had besieged Nasser Hospital in the southern city of Khan Younis for nearly a week, with staff, patients, and others inside struggling under heavy fire and dwindling supplies, including food and water, the AP reports.
