Jakarta, CNN Indonesia —
The team Israel now started raiding the Kamal Adwan Hospital in Gaza north, according to a Health Ministry spokesperson.
“The lives of patients in hospitals are in danger,” the health ministry said.
Over the previous few days, Israeli soldiers had surrounded and shelled the hospital.
The director of Kamal Adwan Hospital, Ahmad al-Kahlout, stated that Israeli troops stationed near the Beit Lahiya city facility were targeting anyone who tried to enter the hospital, as reported by Anadolu Agency.
“The Israeli army surrounded the hospital with tanks and guns, and targeted all roads leading to the facility,” al-Kahlout said.
In a post on Telegram, Ashraf al-Qudra said Israeli forces were rounding up men, including medical staff, on the hospital grounds, who he feared would be arrested.
“We call on the UN, the World Health Organization and the International Committee of the Red Cross to act immediately to save the lives of those hospitalized,” al-Qudra said.
Due to this raid and raid, two women and two children were killed because Israel targeted the hospital’s maternity ward.
The siege at Kamal Adwan Hospital made the community even more trapped and afraid of an increasingly tense situation.
“The Israeli army has surrounded the hospital from all sides. We are being targeted by gunfire and artillery shells,” said Munir Al Bursh, Gaza Ministry of Health who is in Kamal Adwan Hospital, as reported by Al Jazeera on Tuesday (5/12).
“Patients, injured victims and those sheltering in hospitals are gripped by fear and shrouded in horror,” he continued.
More than 100 people were reported killed in attacks around the hospital.
Many eyewitnesses saw the horror of Israel killing anyone who tried to escape from the hospital.
Al Bursh and civilians at Kawal Adwan Hospital are worried that a similar massacre will occur as at Al Shifa Hospital and Indonesian Hospital.
“We are worried that there will be a massacre at Kamal Adwan Hospital, like what happened at [RS Al-Shifa] and [RS Indonesia],” said Al Bursh.
