Palestine Red Crescent Society says headquarters targeted

The Palestine Red Crescent Society has said some displaced people have been injured in artillery shelling that targeted the upper floors of the organisation’s headquarters in Khan Younis.

It added that thousands of internally displaced people are sheltering in the building, The Guardian reports.

The Israeli army recently said it was sending more ground forces, including combat engineers, to Khan Younis, Gaza’s second biggest city, to target Hamas militants above ground and in tunnels.
