The third floor of the hospital was previously hit in an Israeli air strike on October 30, 2023.
Fuel shortages forced the hospital to shut down on November 1, 2023, with the UN warning the lives of 70 patients were at risk. It later emerged that four patients died at the hospital due to a lack of medical care.
“The hospital was being used as a command centre by Israeli forces during their previous military assault in central and northern Gaza,” Al Jazeera’s Abu Azzoum said.
“It was blown up completely after having been rebuilt with a Turkish donation of $34m in 2017,” he added.
Israel later confirmed it destroyed the cancer hospital, claiming it was used by Hamas – without providing any evidence.
