Indonesian Hospital reportedly ordered by Israeli forces to evacuate: news agency

The administration at the Indonesian Hospital in Gaza has reported receiving a WhatsApp message from Israeli forces ordering the evacuation of the medical facility, Al Jazeera quotes the Palestinian Wafa news agency as reporting.

The hospital administration told Wafa that the threat has ignited “a state of panic” among those still inside the hospital, amid fear of a repeat of events at Al-Shifa Hospital.

At least 12 people were killed when the Indonesian Hospital came under Israeli fire in recent days. On Monday evening, at least 100 wounded and sick people were evacuated from the health facility — which is now surrounded by Israeli tanks — to the Nasser Medical Complex in Khan Younis.
