An Israeli airstrike hit Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis, killing six people, including a surgeon, and wounding dozens. The toll later rose to seven. Israel confirmed the strike and said Hamas used the hospital as a base. Reports said the targeted commander was not found. Fifty-three nations and groups urged Israel to allow aid into Gaza. UN officials say winter floods hit 26,000 households.

Why it matters

Strikes on hospitals and winter flooding worsen a health and shelter crisis for Gaza's displaced people.
