Nearly 500 people were killed in an Israeli strike at a hospital in Gaza on Tuesday, following the alleged air strike on the Al Ahli Arab hospital, according to the Gaza Health Ministry spokesman, the BBC reported.
It quoted an Israeli Army spokesperson saying the cause of the incident is not known and the army is looking into the details.

Sewell, in a post on X, said early reports suggest hundreds of women and children have been killed, and calls the act the „deliberate killing of vulnerable civilians“.
