The Ministry of Health in Gaza has condemned ongoing attacks by Israeli forces on the besieged Kamal Adwan Hospital in the northern part of the enclave, Al Jazeera reports.

A short while ago, Israeli forces “caused great damage” when they hit the third floor of the largest hospital in the north, which contains medicine and medical supplies, the ministry said in a short statement on Telegram.

“The ministry appeals to all international and UN bodies and organisations to protect hospitals and medical staff from the brutality of the occupation and its crimes against health institutions and staff in the Gaza Strip,” it said.
