NATO said on Thursday that Jordan's King Abdullah will attend the first day of its foreign ministers' meeting scheduled for Dec 3-4 in Brussels, in the context of a ceasefire deal between Israel and Lebanese armed group Hezbollah, Reuters reported.

Israel and Hezbollah traded accusations on Thursday of violations of the ceasefire, which came into effect from Wednesday and was brokered by the United States and France.

King Abdullah participated in a meeting of the North Atlantic Council a little more than a year ago.

Two Israeli missiles hit a building inside a main Gaza hospital on Sunday, destroying the emergency and reception department and damaging other structures, medics said.
Health officials at the Al-Ahli Arab Baptist Hospital evacuated the patients from the building after one person said he received a call from someone who identified himself with the Israeli security shortly before the attack took place.
No casualties were reported, according to the civil emergency service.
The Israeli military was looking into the report, a spokesperson said.
Images circulating on social media, which Reuters could not immediately verify, showed dozens of people leaving the premises, with some appearing to be dragging sick relatives on hospital beds.
The Hamas-run government media office condemned the attack and said in a statement that Israel was deliberately destroying Gaza's healthcare system.
