- The Associated Press report on Israel’s deliberate attacks on hospitals in the Gaza Strip, without providing any evidence of military activity inside them, reveals organized Israeli crimes that are destroying the entire health sector and spreading fear among medical teams and patients, as happened yesterday with an Israeli bombardment of children’s rooms in Kamal Adwan Hospital.
- The agency's report is based on investigations that lasted several months, and accounts were obtained from eyewitnesses, and a number of doctors and medical and humanitarian workers in Al-Awda, Indonesian and Kamal Adwan hospitals, all of which refute Israeli claims that its attacks on hospitals are due to military necessity because they are used as command and control bases for planning attacks by Hamas. All of what the Israeli army spokesman presented was not based on facts or evidence.
- Certainly, the aim of attacking hospitals is to complete the series of destruction of infrastructure, to tighten the noose on citizens, and increase the difficulties facing them, as the Israeli attacks have previously affected seven hospitals, although they should be protected under international law, but Israel, which is accustomed to violations, did not respect the sanctity of hospitals, and destroyed them completely.
- The occupation’s practices against the health sector have crossed all humanitarian barriers and red lines. The army deliberately launched shells, missiles and bombardment from the air, used bulldozers and heavy machinery to storm and destroy hospitals and health centers, arrested medical teams, their staff and workers, crushed the tents of the displaced inside the hospitals, and humiliated patients and workers.
- What happened yesterday in Kamal Adwan Hospital, according to Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya, when the occupation bombed the children’s floor, the nursery, and the water tanks in the hospital, turning it into a state of near-total collapse, injuring a number of patients, being subjected to heavy Israeli bombardment during a visit by a delegation from the World Health Organization, and not having a single ambulance in the northern Gaza Strip, confirms that these Israeli measures against hospitals are part of a policy of collective punishment against the Palestinians in the Strip. There is no better evidence of what we have presented than the conclusions of international reports issued by official institutions, bodies, and media outlets, most notably the Associated Press, which said that Israel implemented a coordinated policy to destroy the health care system in Gaza.
- The entire Palestinian health sector is calling on the world to intervene to protect hospitals from continued Israeli targeting. Is there anyone who will respond?
