The United Nations has called for a full investigation into the deadly attack on the Nasser Medical Complex in Gaza. On August 25, 2025, an Israeli double strike hit the hospital, resulting in the deaths of 20 people, including five journalists.
The attack happened in two waves, with the second strike occurring approximately seven minutes after the first. This second strike targeted those who rushed to help the wounded. The Israeli military stated that the first attack was aimed at what they identified as a Hamas surveillance camera near the hospital, but no substantial evidence has been presented to support this claim.
This type of attack, known as a “double tap”, is highly controversial and has sparked widespread international condemnation. Several countries and organizations have responded to the incident, including:
- United States, Britain, Egypt, France, and Spain — all have denounced the attack, expressing concern over the impact on civilians in conflict zones.
- Germany — called for a transparent inquiry into the strike.
- Journalist organizations Reuters and the Associated Press — jointly demanded answers from Israeli officials, highlighting that journalists are protected under international humanitarian law.
The tragic event has sparked global outrage and raised serious questions about the conduct of military operations in densely populated areas. The situation remains tense as investigations proceed, with ongoing calls for accountability and justice for those affected by the strike.
