An Israeli air strike on Monday hit the building complex that houses Gaza's leading hospital, according to Palestinian officials and eye-witnesses quoted in numerous media reports. It is not immediately clear how many people were killed and wounded in the attack on Shifa Hospital, located in Gaza City. Reporters are being blocked from filming the area hit, the Guardian reports.
Independent journalism has become the last firewall against government and corporate lies. Yet, with frightening regularity, independent media sources are losing funding, closing down or being blacked out by Google and Facebook. Never before has independent media been more endangered. If you believe in Common Dreams, if you believe in people-powered independent media, please support us now and help us fight—with truths—against the lies that would smother our democracy. Please help keep Common Dreams alive and growing. Thank you. -- Craig Brown, Co-founder
