At least 20 people, including five journalists working for international media, are reported to have been killed in an Israeli strike on Nasser Hospital in the southern Gaza Strip.
A Reuters cameraman, an Associated Press (AP) journalist, and an Al Jazeera photographer were among them. It is not clear who the other two worked for.
Several people were killed in an initial strike, and others in a second which happened as rescuers attended the scene, the Hamas-run health ministry said.
The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) says an investigation is being carried out into its attack on the hospital. It added that it "does not target journalists as such", but did not give details about the strike.
The latest deaths brings the number of journalists killed in Gaza since the start of the war there in October 2023 to nearly 200.
