The Israeli military said Monday it will investigate a strike in the area of Nasser Hospital in Khan Yunis, which Gaza’s civil defence agency said killed 15 people including four journalists.

“Earlier today (Monday), IDF troops carried out a strike in the area of Nasser Hospital in Khan Yunis. The Chief of the General Staff instructed to conduct an initial inquiry as soon as possible,” the military said in a statement, adding it “regrets any harm to uninvolved individuals and does not target journalists as such.”
