The Board of Peace issued a public statement on Thursday demanding the immediate rollout of Donald Trump’s Gaza plan. Officials stated that the tragic loss of life during recent military operations showed why the initiative must move forward without delay.
According to the statement shared on social media, the board deplored the death of any civilians. The organization also denounced Hamas but refrained from directly condemning the Israeli military attack on the medical facility.
The board warned of ongoing cycles of violence if the plan stays stalled. "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," the board said.
The statement urged all involved parties to honor their commitments under the proposal. The board reported that it established a strategic framework to ensure residents can live safely and access essential medical care in secure, demilitarized facilities.
"All parties must cede the necessary authority and operational space to the Board of Peace to implement this framework without obstruction or delay," the group added.
The appeal followed an Israeli airstrike that hit the second floor of the Al-Yasin building at the Nasser Medical Complex in western Khan Younis. Gaza’s Civil Defense reported that the attack killed six people and injured more than 20 others on Thursday.
The hospital director stated that the strike caused extensive damage to the intensive care and surgical wards. Israeli Army Radio described the bombardment as an assassination operation, though it provided no details regarding the target.
The Gaza Health Ministry confirmed that those killed included medical staff, patients, and their companions. These casualties occurred amid ongoing violations of the ceasefire agreement that went into effect on October 10, 2025.
Ceasefire violations have killed 1,622 Palestinians and wounded 5,878 since the agreement began. The broader military campaign since October 2023 has claimed the lives of more than 74,600 Palestinians, with nearly 176,000 others wounded.
Most of the casualties throughout the conflict consist of women and children. The war has also destroyed 90 percent of the infrastructure across the Palestinian territory.
