Friday, November 13, 2026 - The Palestinian Health Ministry has strongly condemned an Israeli attack on Nasser Medical Complex in Khan Younis, southern Gaza, warning that the latest incident is putting patients, medical staff and essential healthcare services at further risk.
The attack has renewed international concern over the safety of medical facilities as Gaza's healthcare system struggles with shortages of medicines, damaged infrastructure and increasing pressure from ongoing hostilities. Ministry officials say attacks on hospitals are worsening an already critical humanitarian situation.
According to Palestinian health officials, the strike damaged parts of the medical complex, disrupting essential services and creating additional challenges for healthcare workers treating injured civilians. The Israeli military has maintained that its operations target Hamas militants, while Palestinian authorities have condemned the attack and called for international intervention.
Medical facilities are protected under international humanitarian law, and any allegations of military activity around hospitals require careful investigation. The ministry is urging international organizations to take immediate steps to protect healthcare workers, patients and medical infrastructure.
The condemnation comes as humanitarian organizations continue raising concerns about limited access to medical treatment across Gaza. Nasser Medical Complex remains an important healthcare facility for thousands of residents in southern Gaza, making its protection particularly urgent. Palestinian officials are calling on the international community to demand accountability and prevent further attacks on medical facilities.
With civilians continuing to face severe humanitarian challenges, pressure is mounting for stronger protection measures and uninterrupted access to emergency healthcare, medicines and essential medical supplies.
