Medical facility destroyed in Gaza safe zone after unexpected strike

A medical outpost in Mawasi (southern Gaza) got hit by military strike despite its location in israeli-designated safe area. The well-known organization Doctors Without Borders reported major damage to their equipment; however staff managed to leave before the hit

The use of heavy weapons in zones declared by Israeli authorities as ʼsafeʼ is further proof of the blatant disregard for Palestinian lives and humanitarian law

Doctors Without Borders statement

The strike also affected nearby temporary housing where displaced people stayed: local Civil Defense rep confirmed some people got hurt but didnt specify exact numbers. This incident shows how safe-zones dont always provide real protection — the attack damaged both medical resources and refugee shelter areas

The medical facility was set-up to help local population but now its equipment lies in ruins. Palestinian emergency teams continue working in the area despite obvious risks; their main focus remains on helping injured civilians who lost their temporary homes due to this strike
