The Ministry of Health in Gaza announced, on Tuesday, that the Israeli army stormed Kamal Adwan Hospital in the northern Gaza Strip, after besieging it and targeting it with several attacks.
The ministry said in a statement, “The occupation forces are gathering men, including medical staff, in the hospital courtyard,” noting “fears of their arrest or liquidation.”
A medical source close to Hamas said that the Israeli army is detaining the hospital director and the medical staff, including women, and subjecting them to interrogation “under threat” in the emergency department.
The Ministry of Health in Gaza called on “the United Nations, the World Health Organization and the Red Cross to take immediate action to save the lives of those in the hospital.”
The Israeli army began its ground attacks on Gaza late last October, and its forces are currently deployed north and south of the Strip.
The army says that Hamas uses civilian facilities, including hospitals, as its headquarters.
