Israeli troops stormed and set fire to one of the last hospitals operating in the northernmost part of Gaza on Friday says the territory's health ministry
They were led out of the hospital, some to an unknown location, while some patients were sent to the nearby Indonesian hospital, which was knocked out of operation after an Israeli raid earlier this week. The ministry’s account could not be independently confirmed, and attempts to contact hospital staff were unsuccessful.
Last week, the medical aid group Doctors Without Borders accused Israel of systematically attacking Gaza’s healthcare system and restricting essential humanitarian assistance. “These preventable deaths lay bare the desperate and deteriorating conditions facing families and children across Gaza,” said Mr. Beigbeder.
“I was not sure actually I could survive because it was so close, a few meters from where we were,” Mr.Ghebreyesus told Reuters. “A slight deviation could have resulted in a direct hit.”
