The situation in Khan Younis is considered to be completely chaotic there as Israeli forces are stepping up military attacks and destroying complete residential neighbourhoods one after the other, Al Jazeera reports.

“We’ve been seeing Israeli forces encircling Nasser Hospital alongside al-Amal Hospital — the last two remaining hospitals operating in Khan Younis,” AJ reports citing its correspondent.

The ongoing action by Israeli forces led to terrorising hundreds of patients and evacuees, the media outlet said, adding medical workers are trying to keep providing treatment for the injured and pregnant women, who are unable to flee from the hospital due to the intensifying raids of attacks on the city.
