An Israeli strike on al-Ahli hospital in Gaza City killed five people, including three journalists, according to the Anglican Church which operates the hospital. The Palestinian Journalists' Syndicate condemned the attack as a war crime. The Israeli military claimed it targeted a Palestinian Islamic Jihad fighter in a command center within the hospital grounds. The incident occurred amidst a call from over 130 international news organizations for increased access to Gaza for journalists and protection for Palestinian journalists, noting nearly 200 have been killed by the Israeli military. The hospital has previously been attacked, with allegations of Israeli forces using the hospital for military purposes.
