Israel's Defence Forces has this morning announced an operation is underway at Gaza's largest hospital. 

Troops are carrying out a 'precise operation' following intelligence that senior Hamas officials were using the Al-Shifa hospital in Gaza City as a command centre to plan and carry out terror attacks, according to the IDF. 

Loud bangs caused the sky to light up in unverified video footage posted on X with one person claiming the area was 'under siege' and a 'complete mess' in what was described as an 'Israeli bombardment'.   

IDF spokesperson Daniel Hagari stated that the operation was targeting limited areas within the hospital complex based on 'concrete intelligence that demanded immediate action'.

'Our targeted mission isn't just an operational necessity; it's a global imperative,' he said in video footage posted on the IDF's X page.
