Israeli forces launched an operation in the al-Shifa Hospital compound in Gaza City and ordered displaced people in the area to leave. Israel said intelligence indicated Hamas activity in the complex; Hamas rejected the claim and Palestinian sources reported danger to patients, medical workers and displaced civilians. OCHA recorded evacuation instructions and continuing combat in the area. The operation again placed a major medical site and people seeking shelter within active fighting.
