Israeli Strikes Hit Gaza Medical Facilities Amid Disarmament Uncertainty

An Israeli air strike leveled two warehouses used by Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital to store essential medicine in Deir al-Balah, while a separate attack in Gaza City killed two Palestinians. The military asserted the sites housed Hamas weaponry, a claim countered by hospital staff who cited the destruction of critical dialysis supplies.

The strike in southern Gaza left a crater several meters wide, scattering medical debris near a densely populated tent encampment. According to the Palestinian Health Ministry, the facility stored vital materials for kidney dialysis and wound care. Dr. Khalil al-Daqran condemned the action as a heinous crime, noting the complete loss of supplies intended for hospital patients. While witnesses reported that the military issued evacuation warnings before the explosion, the hospital maintains that the facility was dedicated to civilian health needs.

Simultaneously, an Israeli strike in the Sheikh Radwan area of Gaza City resulted in two fatalities. Military officials identified the targets as Hamas militants, though they provided no supporting evidence for this or the alleged weapon stockpiles near the hospital. The escalation occurs against a backdrop of diplomatic ambiguity, as President Donald Trump recently announced a breakthrough in a disarmament plan. Despite the U.S.-mediated roadmap, Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir has publicly rejected the agreement, signaling a continued reliance on military force rather than the proposed ceasefire terms.
