Al Jazeera reports that wounded people and the remaining medical staff in Kamal Adwan Hospital, which has been occupied by Israeli forces, are forcefully being evacuated to the complex’s yard, Ashraf al-Qudra, the spokesman for Gaza’s health ministry, said in a statement on Telegram.

Al-Qudra said earlier in the day that Israel’s army prevented medical staff from providing care to 10 injured people in the hospital’s emergency unit, causing two of them to die.

He also said the army cut off food, water and electricity, and prevented the medical staff from moving between hospital departments.
