A surgeon at Nasser Hospital in Gaza’s Khan Younis has described the “very dangerous” situation at the medical complex, with staff unable to move between buildings due to fighting, Al Jazeera reports.

“We can’t move from one building to one building,” Ahmed Moghrabi, a plastic surgeon, said in a video posted to Instagram on Friday. “It’s very dangerous.”

Gunfire can be heard outside the hospital in the footage, while the area outside the facility appears deserted apart from uncollected rubbish and stray cats.
