The Israeli airstrike on the Nasser Medical Complex in Khan Younis, southern Gaza Strip, resulted in the death of at least 20 Palestinians, including five journalists and several medical and relief workers. This attack sparked widespread international and UN condemnation, with calls for urgent investigations and protection of civilians. US President Donald Trump expressed displeasure, stating he was unaware of the strike and emphasizing the need to end the conflict. The UK, Germany, and France condemned the attack, demanding immediate ceasefire and accountability. The UN Secretary-General condemned the killings and called for a prompt, impartial investigation, while the UN Human Rights spokesperson stressed that journalists and hospitals must never be targeted. The Palestinian Journalists Syndicate mourned five members killed in what it described as an assassination crime. Reuters and AP confirmed some of the deceased journalists were their contractors and collaborators.

The strike coincided with other Israeli attacks across Gaza causing further civilian casualties. Saudi Arabia condemned the targeting of medical and media personnel and called for international action to stop Israeli violations. The Civil Defense reported Israeli strikes on medical buildings and tents sheltering displaced persons, with multiple casualties among civilians and aid recipients.
