Irish Prime Minister Michael Martin has denounced Israel’s attack on Gaza’s Al-Ahli Baptist Hospital, which forced the evacuation of dozens of wounded people and resulted in the death of a sick Palestinian child, according to Al Jazeera.

Martin wrote on X that he was “appalled by the missile strike on the Al-Ahli hospital, leaving northern Gaza critically short of emergency care”.

He described the attack as part of a “wider and deeper unacceptable development in modern warfare”.

“The wanton killing and targeting of civilians has to end.”
