TEHRAN, Oct. 18 (MNA) – Iranian doctors, nurses, healthcare staff, as well as the Red Crescent society members gathered in Tehran's Palestine Square on Wednesday morning to condemn the Zionists' crimes against Palestinians.
At least 500 civilians, mainly women and children, were killed by Israeli airstrikes on the facility amid a relentless war by the regime in the besieged Gaza Strip, the territory's health ministry said. The actual death toll could be far higher since, according to the ministry, "hundreds of victims are still under the rubble."
The strikes came while thousands of civilians were seeking medical treatment and shelter at the hospital from incessant Israeli airstrikes.
