Israel Used a U.S.-Made Missile to Kill Six at Gaza’s Nasser Hospital
“That’s not complicity," said a U.S. doctor. "That's active participation in the murder of physicians and other healthcare workers.” The post Israel Used a U.S.-Made Missile to Kill Six at Gaza’s Nasser Hospital appeared first on The Intercept .
Israeli forces struck Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis, Gaza, on Wednesday, killing six people, including internationally recognized surgeon Dr. Rizk Abu Shaaira, and wounding 52 others, according to Gaza health officials. The attack was carried out using a U.S.-made missile, the GBU-39/B, which is manufactured by Boeing and purchased by Israel with U.S. funds.
The hospital, which serves a population of approximately 1.3 million people, had already been targeted seven times since the escalation of the conflict in 2023. This is the fourth Israeli strike on a hospital since the ceasefire agreement in October 2025. The Israeli military claimed the attack was targeting a Hamas commander, but did not confirm whether the alleged target was killed or address the civilian casualties.
