The administration of Kamal Adwan Hospital in the northern Gaza Strip reported that the Israeli occupation army had asked it to evacuate the hospital of patients, medical staff and displaced persons within 24 hours.

This demand came amid a tight siege on the hospital, where the occupation forces arrested a paramedic and obstructed the evacuation of premature babies, which further exacerbated the humanitarian situation.

The Ministry of Health in Gaza confirmed that Kamal Adwan Hospital was being bombed, as the occupation forces opened fire on the hospital administration office, noting that the hospital may stop working within hours due to the depletion of fuel needed to operate medical equipment.

In a joint statement with neighboring hospitals, the administration of Kamal Adwan Hospital called on international institutions to intervene immediately to stop these violations and prevent hospitals from being put out of service, as the occupation seeks to displace the residents of northern Gaza by targeting health facilities.

The occupation army did not limit itself to Kamal Adwan Hospital only, but issued orders to evacuate the Indonesian and return hospitals, which exacerbates the humanitarian crisis in the besieged Strip.
