Israeli troops raided the compound of Gaza's Al-Shifa Hospital early on Monday in an operation that Palestinian health authorities said had caused multiple casualties and set off a fierce fire in one of the buildings.

The Israeli military said soldiers conducted a "precise operation" and were fired upon when they entered the compound.
