GAZA -- A complete power blackout hit the Nasser Hospital in the southern Gaza Strip city of Khan Younis on Friday, reported the official Palestinian news agency WAFA.

The Gaza-based Health Ministry said in a statement that the Israeli forces deliberately disabled the hospital through attacks and blockade and prevented its ambulances from operating.
