Palestinian human rights group Al-Haq has said Israel’s recent attack on the al-Ahli Arab Hospital was part of a “pattern of genocidal attacks on health facilities, vehicles, equipment and staff”, Al Jazeera reports.

“This latest attack on a medical facility follows the demolition of the Turkish-Palestinian Friendship Hospital, the last cancer treatment centre in Gaza, on 20 March 2025,” Al-Haq said in a post on X.

“Less than half of Gaza’s hospitals are still partially functional, struggling to deliver care in damaged buildings and facing severe shortages of medical supplies due to Israel’s total blockade,” Al-Haq added.

“Not only is there no safe place in Gaza, but Israel… has also eliminated the means of survival for Palestinians facing daily aerial bombardment, ground attacks, starvation, disease, and exhaustion,” it added.
