Nearly 27,000 people have been killed in the Gaza Strip as a result of Israeli strikes since the beginning of hostilities, according to local officials.
Three civilians were killed and six others injured, as well as one staff member, as a result of the Israeli military’s attack on the Palestinian Red Crescent Society's building and Al-Amal Hospital in Khan Younis in the southern Gaza Strip, the Palestinian Red Crescent Society reported on its website.

"The Palestine Red Crescent Society condemns the direct shelling by the Israeli occupation forces on the society's building in Khan Younis and Al-Amal Hospital ...., which shelters thousands of displaced people, resulting in the death of three displaced people and our colleague," the organization said in a statement.

It is specified that Hedaya Hamad, director of the youth and volunteer department, was killed in the shelling, while six people were injured. As noted by the Red Crescent, the siege of the Al-Amal Hospital and the headquarters of the organization is continuing for the 12th day.
