An Israeli air strike has targeted a hospital in southern Gaza, killing a senior Hamas official.
An Al Jazeera journalist was standing by to go live outside Nasser Hospital when it was hit.
Fire broke out on the second floor of the facility, filling it with smoke.
Hamas says a member of the group’s political bureau, Ismail Barhoum, was killed in the attack.
He had been undergoing treatment at the hospital.
A 16-year-old boy was also killed in the strike, while several others were injured.
Al Jazeera’s Hind Khoudary has the latest from Deir el-Balah in central Gaza, Palestine.
Dr Feroze Sidhwa is a trauma surgeon and was in Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis, when it was bombed.
He says there is no justification for attacking hospitals.
