On November 12, 2026, MEE Live presenter James Schneider discussed how Western media covered the Israeli attack on Gaza's Nasser Hospital. At least seven Palestinians, among them a doctor and patients, were killed when Israel conducted an air strike on the hospital in Khan Younis. Dozens more were injured as the strike damaged the hospital's surgical wing.
The New York Times, according to Schneider, framed the attack by including Israeli claims that Hamas had established a command center inside the hospital complex in its subheading. This comes amid continued Israeli violations of the October 2025 ceasefire and a broader assault on Gaza's healthcare infrastructure. In total, over 1,800 medical facilities have been either partially or completely destroyed since the conflict began, as per a joint assessment from the UN, World Bank, and EU.
