Israel-Hamas: Plumes of smoke surround hospital in Gaza after heavy bombardment

Plumes of smoke filled the sky near Al-Amal Hospital in Kana Yunis, Gaza on Tuesday, 24 October 2023.

Footage published by the Palestine Red Crescent Society (PRCS) shows crowds of people running after reports of heavy bombardment in the surrounding area.

Reuters have verified the location of this video.

The Palestinian health ministry said more than 5,000 people have been killed in Gaza following two weeks of intense air strikes by Israeli forces in response to a devastating Hamas attack on southern Israel on 7 October.

1,400 people have been killed in Israel following the attack by Hamas, according to Israeli officials.
