The Israeli army has targeted a residential building only a few metres away from Al-Aqsa Martyrs’ Hospital, killing and wounding at least 40 people, according to Gaza officials.
The Gaza government media office says the area had been deemed "safe" by the Israeli army.
“This is a continuation of the deception and fabrications by the Israeli occupation army to mislead public opinion,” the media office said.
“We condemn in the strongest terms the ongoing massacres and crimes of the occupation against our Palestinian people, and we call on the whole world to stop the genocidal war waged against civilians,” the office added.
