Gaza’s Hamas-run health ministry has said at least 13 people were killed in the blast outside Al-Shifa hospital in Gaza City, which we reported on earlier.

A Hamas statement said Israeli forces targeted “a convoy of ambulances which was transporting the wounded” from Al-Shifa towards Rafah in the southern Gaza Strip.

The Israeli military has confirmed it hit an ambulance, which it says was being used by Hamas operatives. But it did not say where the strike took place.

BBC Verify has verified graphic videos showing badly injured and possibly dead people lying outside the hospital.
