Hamas has condemned the Israeli military’s ongoing assault on the hospital in northern Gaza, describing it as an “unprecedented crime against humanity”, Al Jazeera reports.

“The occupation army continues its brutal bombing and systematic destruction of areas in the north of the Gaza Strip, especially Jabalia, its refugee camp and Beit Lahia,” it said in a statement yesterday.

It added that the strikes have been targeting shelters, schools and especially the Kamal Adwan Hospital.

Hamas also said that threats were made to evacuate patients, the injured and displaced people from the hospital, calling it “a crime of ethnic cleansing and forced displacement” amid international silence and inaction.
