In video footage on social networks, heavy gunfire could be heard in the vicinity of the hospital, Xinhua reported.
Zionist media sources reported that there were fatalities and injuries in the hospital.
The Health Ministry in Gaza said in a statement that the Israeli military attacked the al-Shifa complex, blaming Zionist forces for aiming "to continue destroying the health system in northern Gaza." The ministry urged international organizations to "immediately" intervene to protect the hospital and the patients inside it.
Al-Shifa, the largest hospital in the Gaza Strip, has been previously targeted by the Israeli forces.
Israel waged its brutal US-backed war on the Gaza Strip on October 7 after the Hamas Resistance movement carried out its historic operation against the usurping entity in retaliation for the regime’s intensified atrocities against the Palestinian people.
So far, the Tel Aviv regime has killed at least 31,645 Palestinians, mostly women and children, and injured 73,676 others.
In a war crime, the occupying regime is intentionally starving the people in Gaza by destroying food supplies and severely restricting the flow of food, medicines, and other humanitarian supplies.
