UN spokesman Stephane Dujarric said that medical supplies delivered to Kamal Adwan Hospital in northern Gaza Strip five days ago were subjected to Israeli shelling and were completely destroyed.

Dujarric explained in a press conference on Thursday that the Israeli siege imposed on northern Gaza is still ongoing.

He added that search and rescue teams and medical staff are unable to perform their duties due to Israeli attacks on hospitals.

The UN spokesman pointed out that hospitals in the Gaza Strip are trying to continue their work despite the ongoing Israeli bombing.
