Dr Hossam Abu Safiya, director of Kamal Adwan Hospital, has shared a live video documenting Israel’s bombardment of the medical facility in northern Gaza today, which instilled panic and fear among patients and staff, Al Jazeera reports.

The video, verified by Al Jazeera’s Sanad fact-checking agency, was posted on Abu Safiya’s Instagram account.

It captures the upper floor of the hospital being bombed by Israeli forces with nurses and wounded patients fleeing as the bombardment intensifies.

“Patients and children run amid the Israeli occupation bombing the hospital and water tanks! As if the siege is not enough and patients and doctors must die of thirst,” Abu Safiya wrote.
