North Gaza: Israeli forces storm hospital after bombing it and killing children
Israeli forces stormed the last operational hospital in the besieged north Gaza on Friday after bombing it and killing children inside, according to doctors and media reports.
The attack on the Kamal Adwan hospital, located in Beit Lahia northwest of Jabalia, was launched around 2am local time, shortly after a WHO delegation left the hospital.
It began with air strikes targeting the hospital and its courtyards, including the medical oxygen generator, said Dr. Munir al-Bursh, the director general of the Palestinian health ministry in Gaza.
The bombing led to the death of children inside the hospital and wounded medical staff.
Israeli troops then raided the hospital around two hours later, calling on all patients, including people in intensive care, to gather in the courtyard.
