Five journalists worked in international media, including Associated Press, Reuters, Al Jazeera and Bright East Eye.
Later on Monday, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called the incident a “tragic unsuccessful” that Israel “deeply regrets” and said the military authorities “conducted a thorough investigation”.
The first strike struck at about 10:00 local time, said medical staff in the serenal.
There was a “mass panic … chaos,” said a British healthcare provider who worked at a hospital who at the time treated patients in intensive care.
About 10 minutes later, another blast occurred in the same place, the healthcare provider said, adding that the medical staff planned escape from the building when the second strike struck.
According to the World Health Organization, an ambulance department, a hospital ward and a surgical unit was impressed. Its leader Dr. Tedroz Agreyz said that the emergency ladder had also been damaged.
BBC Verify saw footage to confirm these terms.
A broadcast of Al Ghad TV shows several emergency workers responding to the first strike near the top floor of the Nasser Hospital, as a number of journalists in the background “What’s going on”.
The video shows a staircase where journalists are often going to broadcast. Then the strike struck ambulance and journalists directly, sending smoke and rubble into the air. At least one body is visible after.
A separate video shot from the same staircase shows the consequences of the strike. Bodies can be seen on the stairs because doctors respond to the attack.
Another clip, shot before the main entrance to the Nasser Hospital, shows that the healthcare provider holding curved clothes to the camera before the explosion sends people running for cover.
The British medical worker described “blood trails throughout the floor” and “absolute scenes of chaos, disbelief and fear”.
The identity of the murdered journalists was confirmed, but we know little about other deaths. The Ministry of Health Hamas said rescuers and patients were killed.

Israel does not allow international information organizations, including the BBC, freely reported. Local journalists rely on the provision of information to the world media agency.
The Journalists’ Defense Committee (CPJ) says more than 190 journalists have been killed in the 22 months of the war, the vast majority of Palestinians who died as a result of Israeli attacks.
Two weeks ago, Israel killed six journalists in a targeted attack on one of them Next to the Schiffe Hospital in Gaza, causing indignation.
The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) initially confirmed that they had a strike near the Nasure Hospital in southern Gaza.
Throughout the day, Israeli officials have made several statements with little information, which testified to lack of clarity from the military about the attack, but designed to resolve extensive indignation.
On Monday night, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Israel “deeply regrets the tragic failure that took place today at the Nasser Hospital, adding that Israel” honors the work of journalists, healthcare workers and all civilians “and stated that the military had been” in charge “.
However, the statement practically resolved the obvious nature of the attack. The fact that most of those who died were struck by the second attack in the same place after about 10 minutes, expressed clearly intentional.
“Double Presses” is a contradictory military tactic designed to maximize the victims, shooting at those who respond to the place of the first attack.
Media -organizations’ statements, including the Foreign Press Association in Israel and the occupied Palestinian territories, have accused Israeli military in the intentional orientation of journalists throughout the war.
It is unclear whether and when Israel will publish the results of the internal investigation, it is said that it has begun.
UN Secretary -General Antonio Gutteres strongly condemned the “horrific killings” at the Nasser Hospital, who, he said, “highlight the risks faced by medical staff and journalists when they perform their vital work against the background of this hard conflict” and called for a “rapid investigation”.
British Foreign Minister David Lami said he was “horrified” and called for fire immediately.
French President Emmanuel Macron called the strike “unbearable” and stated that civilians and journalists should be protected. He resumed a call for humanitarian aid to be allowed in gas and Israel to “respect international law.”
The German service stated that it was “shocked”.
Meanwhile, US President Donald Trump said he did not know about the strike, but when he was asked for his reaction, he said he was “not satisfied with it.”
Groups of media freedom also sentenced.
“When and where does it end? There is international law,” said the head of journalists without Thibaut Brittin.
“There are guarantees that should be provided to journalists covering conflicts and none of this is applied.”
The journalist’s defense committee said: “Israel translated the murder of journalists into gas until the world is watching and firmly operating.”
The Foreign Press Association stated that the latest killings should serve as a “turning point” and urged international leaders to act. He called on Israel to “stop his ugly practice of orientation on journalists”, adding that “too many journalists were killed by Israel without justification.”
