Israeli snipers are shooting at Gaza City’s Al-Quds hospital, the Red Crescent aid agency claimed.

At least one person was killed and 20 wounded in the shootings at Al-Quds hospital, the sister organisation to the Red Cross said in a statement.

The Israeli military responded that it “cannot discuss potential locations relating to our operations” because it could “compromise the troops.”

It comes as Antony Blinken, the US Secretary of State, said far too many Palestinians have been killed. 

“Far too many Palestinians have been killed, far too many have suffered these past weeks, and we want to do everything possible to prevent harm to them and to maximize the assistance that gets to them,” he told reporters in New Delhi.

Earlier on Friday, an Israeli strike hit Al-Shifa hospital, Gaza’s largest, where 80,000 people were sheltering. Israel claims Hamas use the hospital as a base.
