Gaza sources report that the IDF bombed a medicine warehouse at the Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital in Deir al-Balah, central Gaza, this morning, leaving a large crater in its place. The warehouse was previously struck in an earlier IDF operation, according to prior reports.
At 11:08 Jerusalem, Gaza sources reported that the IDF bombed a medicine warehouse at the Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital in Deir al-Balah, central Gaza, leaving a large crater. The report follows a series of rapid developments earlier this morning.
The story began at 08:33 Jerusalem Saturday with an unverified report of an Israeli strike damaging the warehouse. Shortly after, Abu Ali Express reported that the IDF had struck the warehouse after an evacuation warning, noting it was apparently used for storing weapons. At the same time, a new crater was reported at the site. The source quality evolved from an unverified claim to an on-record report from a security analyst, and now to Gaza sources identifying the location as a medicine warehouse.
The Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital has been a focal point of IDF operations in Deir al-Balah, a central Gaza city that serves as a strategic hub for Hamas infrastructure. As The Zioneer reported on July 25, Israeli fighter jets struck the gate of the hospital. The Deir al-Balah area has seen repeated strikes on medical supply warehouses allegedly used by terror factions, according to earlier reports.
The IDF has not commented on the latest report. The cause of the crater remains unconfirmed, and it is not clear whether the crater resulted from a new strike or from the earlier bombing. No casualties have been reported.
