Indonesia’s Foreign Minister Retno Marsudi has condemned Israel’s “attack” on the Indonesian Hospital in Gaza.

“The attack is a clear violation of international humanitarian laws. All countries, especially those that have close relations with Israel, must use all their influence and capabilities to urge Israel to stop its atrocities,” she said in a statement.

At least 12 people, including wounded patients, were killed in Israeli strike on the Indonesian Hospital, which is located in the north of Gaza. AFP and Reuters report Israeli tanks have encircled the facility, putting at risk hundreds of people.
