Yesterday, the al-Ahli Baptist Hospital in Gaza was bombed, killing at least 500 Palestinians.

Al Jazeera has also reported that the Israeli military has issued evacuation orders for 22 hospitals. A senior health official in Gaza told Al Jazeera that Israel had fired two artillery shells as a warning at the al-Ahli Baptist Hospital days before the bombing.
