WHO confirms Gaza’s largest hospital is without power, putting patients including infants at risk of death; US strikes Syria for third time in just over two weeks

This is the Guardian’s live coverage of the Israel-Hamas war, with me, Helen Sullivan. Our top story this morning: Health officials and people trapped inside Gaza’s largest hospital rejected Israel’s claims that it was helping babies and others evacuate Sunday, the Associated Press reports, saying fighting continued just outside the facility where incubators lay idle with no electricity and critical supplies were running out.

World Health Organization Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said on the X social media platform that Shifa has been without water three days and “is not functioning as a hospital anymore.” Several humanitarian groups told The Associated Press they weren’t able to reach the hospital Sunday.
