Dr Marwan Sultan, director of Beit Lahiya’s Indonesian Hospital, says he’s concerned that more patients will die due to Israeli actions against the hospital.

“The Israeli occupation army prevents the entry of fuel and medical supplies to the Indonesian Hospital and cuts off electricity to staff and patients,” he told Al Jazeera. “The Israeli occupation army is still besieging the hospital, and dozens of patients may die.”

He added that medical workers are unable to rescue wounded Palestinians.

“Dozens of killed and wounded in the streets, and no one can rescue them due to the siege imposed on the hospitals in the north.”
