Israeli forces have entered Gaza’s largest hospital in what the military says is a “targeted” operation

A journalist inside the hospital tells the BBC that soldiers are going room to room and interrogating people but there is currently no shooting taking place

The same witness said commando soldiers had entered the main emergency department, with tanks also in the hospital area

Israel accuses Hamas of running a command centre in tunnels under the hospital and the US says it has intelligence that supports this

Hamas denies this and says the raid on the hospital is a war crime – hundreds of civilians have been sheltering there, alongside patients

The White House says civilians and patients must be protected, adding: “We don’t want to see a firefight in a hospital”
