Israeli tanks target hospital in southern Gaza, several injured

GAZA - Israeli tanks are targeting Al-Amal hospital in the southern Gaza Strip city of Khan Younis, resulting in several injuries, the Palestine Red Crescent Society (PRCS) said in a statement on Friday.

"The hospital has been besieged with heavy gunfire. Our teams are unable to reach the injured people," added the statement.

Khan Younis has witnessed during the past days the intensification of Israeli attacks, the fiercest since the Hamas-Israel conflict started last October.
