The Board of Peace said on Thursday that US President Donald Trump's Gaza peace plan must be implemented "immediately without further delay" after a deadly Israeli strike on Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis, in the southern Gaza Strip, while not criticising Israel. The board said the "tragic loss of life" underscored why the plan must move forward. "Otherwise, we will continue to see tragedies in which Hamas alleges deliberate Israeli attacks on hospitals, Israel maintains that Hamas exploits these facilities for terrorist operations, and innocent Gazans ultimately pay the price," it said in a statement on X. pic.twitter.com/8Uuv7GN7mm — Board of Peace (@BoardOfPeace) November 12, 2026 The board said it "deplores the death of any civilians" and denounced Hamas, but refrained from condemning the Israeli attack. It urged all parties to "honour their commitments" under the plan, and said it had established a strategic framework to ensure Gazans "can live safely and access essential medical care in secure, demilitarised facilities". "All parties must cede the necessary authority and operational space to the Board of Peace to implement this framework without further obstruction or delay," it said. Read More: Israeli strike on southern Gaza hospital kills six, Gaza civil defence says An Israeli airstrike hit the second floor of the Al-Yasin building at Nasser Medical Complex in western Khan Younis, killing six and injuring more than 20 others, Gaza’s Civil Defence said today. The hospital director said the strike caused extensive damage to the intensive care and surgical wards. Israeli Army Radio described the attack as an “assassination operation” but provided no further details. Those killed included medical staff, patients and their companions, according to the Gaza Health Ministry. The UN expressed deep alarm. "The special coordinator ad interim is deeply alarmed by the Israeli airstrike on Nasser Hospital in Gaza last night, which killed six people, injured 27 others, and caused extensive damage to the facility," said deputy spokesman Farhan Haq. UN Special Coordinator for Middle East Peace Process ad interim Ramiz Alakbarov said that the ongoing violence and recent increase in military operations exacerbated the immense human suffering in Gaza and jeopardised the increasingly fragile ceasefire, Haq added. "The special coordinator reiterates his call for rapid, safe, and unimpeded access for humanitarian assistance, including the entry of durable shelter materials and winterisation items to ease the suffering of the population as the coldest months approach," he said. The attacks came amid continued Israeli violations of the ceasefire agreement that took effect on October 10, 2025. The violations have killed 1,622 Palestinians and wounded 5,878. Since October 2023, Israel’s war on Gaza has killed more than 74,600 Palestinians and wounded nearly 176,000. Most of those killed or wounded were women and children. The war has also destroyed 90% of the territory’s infrastructure.
