Al Jazeera’s Hani Mahmoud has reported on the situation at Kamal Adwan Hospital in northern Gaza:

  • Medical staff inside Kamal Adwan Hospital confirmed that the Israeli military stormed the hospital and ordered staff, patients and the wounded to leave the building.
  • Wounded patients and those with other health complications were dragged outside the buildings into the courtyard of the hospital. Many of them need to be attached to IVs and are on medical beds inside the hospital.
  • Dr Hussam Abu Safia, director of Kamal Adwan Hospital, said the situation at the hospital is catastrophic and there is no medical care available for anyone in northern Gaza. Many of the wounded are scattered on the streets of Jabalia and Beit Lahiya and are unable to reach the hospital due to the ongoing bombardment.
