Israel detains director of key north Gaza hospital as WHO condemns raids
Al JazeeraIsraeli forces storm Kamal Adwan Hospital, putting the last remaining medical facility in northern Gaza out of service. Israel’s army has detained the director of one of the last functioning hospitals in northern Gaza, as the World Health Organization said Israeli assaults on medical facilities are a “death sentence” for thousands of Palestinians. An Israeli military assault on the Kamal Adwan Hospital on Friday put the last major health facility in northern Gaza out of service, the WHO said. The Israeli military said in a statement that it had launched a raid on the Kamal Adwan Hospital as it “serves as a Hamas terrorist stronghold”, but failed to provide any evidence for this claim. “This horror must end and healthcare must be protected.” This morning’s raid on Kamal Adwan Hospital has put this last major health facility in North #Gaza out of service.
