Kamal Adwan hospital hit four times by strikes, WHO chief says

Strikes on Kamal Adwan hospital in northern Gaza damaged an intensive care unit and administrative facilities, WHO chief Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said on X.

Ghebreyesus said northern Gaza’s largest partially functioning hospital was “reportedly hit four times” on Tuesday by Israel after several weeks of “intense hostilities” in the vicinity of the hospital.

The hospital has been dealing with an influx of injured patients as a result of the Israeli strikes.

Efforts are underway to evacuate 20 health staff and 13 patients from damaged sites, he added.
