The hospital resumed operations. PRCS medical rescue teams and a UN team evacuated at least 21 sick and injured patients from the hospital to Khan Yunis.

According to a report by the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (UNOCHA), the hospital was no longer functioning and was not receiving new patients.

The Palestinian Red Crescent Society (PRCS) reported that occupation forces, including tanks, began a siege of the hospital, preventing medical teams from exiting the hospital and reaching the injured.

Occupation forces targeted the hospital, killing 471 people. It is the deadliest incident since the assault on Gaza started on 10/7/2023. Testimonies from the hospital's medical staff confirmed the use of a bomb that caused an unprecedented number of guillotine-like injuries, in addition to the dispersal of the remains and bodies of children and martyrs on top of the hospital buildings.
