According to the sources, the projectile hit the Taba Ambulance-services building and the residential quarter of Taba Hospital’s administration.

Security forces arrived at the scene and have started their investigation, as per the same source.

Five people left the hospital after receiving treatment while the sixth’s condition is currently stable in the hospital according to Al-Qahera News.

The incident took place just as the Israeli aggression on Gaza entered its 21st day.

After 20 days of brazen airstrikes, Israel has killed more than 7,028 Palestinians in Gaza, including 2,913 children and 1,709 women, while injuring thousands of others and demolishing half of the strip’s housing units.

An informed source told the Al-Qahera news channel that all options would be on the table and Egypt reserves the right to respond at the right time once the origin point of the missile launch is determined.
