The Al Ahli Hospital was the first to be struck by a missile during the conflict; at first, Israel claimed it was a Hamas missile that flew off-course, but very few people believe that now.

The video evidence speaks for itself. Israel has shelled the maternity ward of Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis, Gaza.

There can be no military advantage in trying to murder mothers and their infant children; this is a war crime:

This is the latest in a series of attacks on Gazan hospitals. An ‘X’ user using the handle ‘Walnut2016’ posted: “Anybody remember the Baptist Hospital, 1st to be bombed? That was how Israel broke the world’s ice with targeting hospitals. Where’s Anderson Cooper & CNNs horse manure of misfired Khamas rocket? What about the 20 other hospitals Israel aren’t denying they bombed?”

Israel also attacked Kamal Adwan Hospital in northern Gaza:

And while Israel starves Gazans of food and water, it is also starving them of resources; a hospital ship is said to be waiting offshore – but has been refused permission to land and offer help:

Again we see the true face of genocidal Israel: hospitals are not valid wartime targets and Israel’s excuse – that they are fronts for Hamas bases – has been shown to be unfounded (so far).

In any case, there is no reason to deny access to a ship offering vital medical help.

The only likely possibility is that Israel does not want Palestinian civilians to receive any relief from the horrifying injuries being inflicted on them every day.
