The Israeli military said a series of strikes it conducted on a hospital in Gaza on Aug. 25 that killed rescue workers, medics, and journalists, was intended to target a camera they believe was being remotely operated by Hamas.

Footage and witness accounts of the incident indicate that Israeli forces initially struck a section of the Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis. As rescue workers, medics, and journalists arrived on the scene of the damaged hospital section, a second strike landed, killing and wounding several more individuals.
