Hamas and Fatah gunmen traded fire at a hospital in the southern Gaza town of Khan Younis today.
Hamas controlled the roof of the European Hospital and Fatah-allied security forces took up positions nearby. The two sides traded fire.
About 15 children attending a nursery in the compound were rushed into the main building, hospital officials said.
Yesterday, gun battles also raged at a hospital in northern Gaza and the strip’s main health facility, Shifa Hospital in Gaza City.
