Eid Sabbah, the director of nursing at Kamal Adwan Hospital in northern Gaza, has described the situation inside the facility as catastrophic.

“The hospital has no medical teams — doctors, surgeons, orthopaedics. More than 33 people between doctors and nurses have also been arrested,” Sabbah told Al Jazeera.

The Israeli army has destroyed oxygen and electricity stations as well as the hospital’s main water pump and ambulances, Sabbah said.

“The things that we have are things that can’t keep people alive,” he said.

About 120 wounded patients are still inside, a third of whom need immediate surgery. But there are only three doctors left, including two graduates who are not able to operate, the doctor said.

Five days ago, a delegation from the World Health Organization arrived with a small amount of fuel for the generators to operate and some medical supplies, but “immediately after the delegation left the hospital on the same night, the Israeli army stormed the hospital, destroyed a lot of things inside, destroyed the medical supplies that we had received,” he said.
