Several healthcare workers and others at the European Hospital in Khan Younis cannot be evacuated because of repeated Israeli fire, Al Jazeera reports citing Gaza’s health ministry.

In a statement shared on Telegram, the ministry called on “the relevant authorities to provide protection for healthcare facilities” and their staff.

At least 94 per cent of Gaza’s hospitals have been damaged or destroyed in Israel’s military offensive on the enclave, the World Health Organisation said on Friday.
