Israel deeply regrets the tragic mishap that occurred at the Nasser Hospital in Gaza, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said in a post on X.

“Israel values the work of journalists, medical staff, and all civilians. The military authorities are conducting a thorough investigation,” Netanyahu said.

“Our war is with Hamas terrorists. Our just goals are defeating Hamas and bringing our hostages home,” he added.

The Israeli strike on Nasser hospital in the south of the Gaza Strip on Monday killed at least 20 people, including five journalists.
