Israel orders forced removal of patients in Gaza’s Kamal Adwan hospital within 24 hours

The management of Kamal Adwan Hospital in northern Gaza reports that Israeli forces have issued a forced removal order of patients and the wounded, demanding everyone be cleared out within 24 hours.

Hospital officials stated that the Israeli army arrested a paramedic and obstructed efforts to remove premature infants.

“The occupation seeks to put the health system out of service to displace the residents of northern Gaza,” the hospital's management said.

Dr Hossam Abu Safia, the hospital's director, confirmed the threat: “The military reached out to me directly with a clear threat, stating that by tomorrow all patients at Kamal Adwan Hospital must be evacuated, and the hospital, including its medical staff, must be cleared out. Otherwise, we will be putting ourselves in danger. This is an explicit threat."
