Five dead premature babies discovered in Gaza hospital

The bodies of five premature Palestinian babies have reportedly been discovered in al-Nasr Hospital as reporters and aid workers sort through the remains of the bombed-out health facility during the truce in the Gaza Strip.

Footage released by the channel - which Middle East Eye has not been able to independently verify - appeared to show the babies still lying in their hospital beds.
