Israeli forces have raided the Kamal Adwan Hospital in Beit Lahiya in north Gaza, forcing patients and wounded people to leave, Al Jazeera Arabic’s correspondent in Gaza reports.

The medical facility has faced repeated Israeli military attacks over recent weeks, including a drone strike on Thursday that killed a 16-year-old boy in a wheelchair and wounded at least 12 other people, Al Jazeera highlights.

On November 29, an Israeli drone also killed Dr Ahmed al-Kahlout, the director of Kamal Adwan Hospital’s intensive care unit, as he was passing through the facility’s entrance gate.
