The Israeli army killed Hamas’ politburo member Ismail Barhoum and at least four other Palestinians in an airstrike on the Nasser Medical Complex in Khan Younis, southern Gaza Strip yesterday.

Local sources said that an Israeli drone targeted the second floor of the emergency building in the complex. Israeli forces said that they launched an attack on the Nasser Hospital compound in southern Gaza, claiming they targeted a Hamas official. Israeli military resumed air and ground operations in Gaza earlier last week, blamed on Hamas for refusing to agree to revised terms on extending the first phase of the ceasefire.
