MSF lambasts Israeli attack on Gaza’s Nasser Hospital
Doctors Without Borders, known by its French acronym MSF, has condemned the Israeli attack on Nasser Hospital that killed a top Hamas leader and a 16-year-old boy.
The group said the attack late on Sunday “shows a total disregard for the protection of medical facilities, endangered patients and medical staff and the very provision of healthcare”.
It said several of its staff were present at the facility, which is the largest remaining functioning hospital in the Gaza Strip, at the time of the attack. One of them described panic among patients as the bombing took place.
“The distance between us and the explosion was so close that we could’ve been hit too,” said an MSF nurse who works in another ward in Nasser Hospital and was close by when the strike happened. “Our colleagues, medical staff, patients and their caretakers were all terrified.”

Palestinian-American legislator criticises Democratic response to war plans leak
Democratic Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib has slammed her party’s reaction to the Trump administration sharing war plans in a messaging group that included a US journalist.
Senior officials in the party had called for an investigation as well as for heads to roll over the “outrageous security breach”.
Tlaib, who is the only Palestinian-American representative in the US Congress, noted that the outcry was over the leak rather than the deadly attacks that have killed at least 53 people in Yemen.
“More heat for using a group chat than for the bombing itself,” she wrote in a short post on X
