In reaction to the Israeli raid and forced clearance of Kamal Adwan Hospital, one of the last operational hospitals in northern Gaza, Islamic Relief says:
“Forcing dozens of sick and wounded patients and medical staff out of the hospital in the middle of winter is yet another cruel and horrific attack on Palestinian health facilities. This is not an evacuation, this is a forced clearance.
It’s a stark reminder that as we approach the end of another year, Palestinians are still suffering ethnic cleansing, deadly bombing and starvation by an internationally backed government acting with complete impunity. There must be international action to hold Israel to account.
Northern Gaza is under almost total siege and Israel continues to block almost all food and medical aid. Now this latest attack on one of the few remaining hospitals has already killed dozens of people and endangers many more lives as winter temperatures have plummeted and young children forced from their homes are dying from hypothermia. With Kamal Adwan shut, civilians in the north will have even fewer places left to seek treatment.”
