Rafah, Gaza Strip (AP) – Israeli forces caused a storm at the main hospital in South Gaza on Thursday, when Israeli fire killed a patient and injured six others inside the premises. The Israeli army said it was a limited operation that demanded the remains of the hostage taken by Hamas.
The raid came a day later when the army demanded to vacate thousands of displaced people, who took shelter against Hamas in recent weeks at Nasir Hospital in Israel, Israel. No indication of the end of the war shows, and the risk of a broad struggle is increasing as Israel and Lebanon’s Hizbullah has extended the attacks after a particularly fatal exchange on Wednesday.
The army said it had “reliable intelligence” that Hamas had organized hostage in the hospital and the remains of the hostages could still be inside. Chief military spokesperson, rear adam. Daniel Hagari said that the forces were doing a “precise and limited” operation there and would not forcibly empty medics or patients. Israel accused Hamas of using hospitals and other civil structures that they mold their fighters.
An ongoing hostage told The Associated Press last month that he and more than two dozen other prisoners were held at Nasir Hospital. International law prohibits the targeting of medical facilities, but they may lose those safety if they are used for military purposes.
Gaza’s health ministry spokesman Ashraf Al-Kidra said that Israel started a “large-scale avatar” with heavy shoots in which the injured displaced people are still giving shelter there. He said that the army had ordered medics to transfer all patients to an old building which was not properly equipped for their treatment.
He said, “Many people cannot vacate, such as dissection of low organs, severe burns, or the elderly,” he said in an interview with Al Jazeera Network.
Separately, Israel on Wednesday in response to a rocket attack, after killing 10 civilians and three Hizbullah fighters, launched an airstrikes in the southern Lebanon for a second day, killing an Israeli soldier and injuring several others.
This was the most deadly exchange of fire with the border since the onset of the Israeli-Hamas war. Israel and Hizbullah – A colleague of Hamas has traded fire on a daily basis, increasing the risks of widespread conflict.
Hizbullah has not claimed Wednesday’s rocket attack. But a senior member of the group, Sheikh Nail Cauke, said that it is “ready for the possibility of expansion of war” and “increase with growth, displacement with displacement, and destruction with destruction”.
The conversation on a ceasefire in Gaza has stopped in the meantime, and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu vowed to continue the aggressive until Hamas is destroyed and the score of the score of the hostage during the October 7 attack.
The latest focus on operations at Nasir Hospital is affected by Gaza’s health sector as it struggles to treat the score of patients injured in daily bombing.
In the post -night strike overnight, the wheel patients on the stretcher through the smoke or dust -filled corridor were shown medics for the wheel. A drug used a cellphone flashlight to illuminate a black room, where an injured man shouted in pain because the gunfire echoed out. Associated press could not certify the video, but they were in line with its reporting.
One of the remaining surgeons at Nasir Hospital, Dr. Khalid Alser told AP that seven patients were already being treated for previous wounds in the early hours of Thursday.
“The situation is growing every hour and every minute,” he said.
The army ordered the withdrawal of Nasir Hospital and surrounding areas last month. But along with other health facilities, Medix said that the patients were unable to leave or move safely, and thousands of people were displaced by fighting elsewhere.
“People have been forced into an impossible situation,” Lisa Machineer of doctors of the help group said without limits.
“Stay in Nasir Hospital against the orders of the Israeli army and become a possible goal, or take out the complex in an apocalypse scenario, where bomb blasts and withdrawal orders are a part of daily life.”
The International Support Group, also known by his French language familiar MSF, said its employees had to flee the hospital on Thursday, and surpassed the patients, and an employee was detained at an Israeli checkpoint outside the convenience.
The war began when Hamas’s fighter aircraft burst through Israeli’s formidable rescue on 7 October and instigated through several communities, some 1,200 people killed and took another 250 hostage. More than 100 detainees were freed during a ceasefire last year in exchange for 240 Palestinian prisoners.
About 130 prisoners are built in Gaza, one of which is considered dead in fourth place. Netanyahu has come under rapid pressure from hostages and wide public families to make a deal to secure his freedom, but his far-flung coalition partners can bring down their government if they are seen as being very soft on Hamas.
Israel responded to the October 7 attack by launching one of the deadliest and most destructive military operations in the recent history. More than 28,000 Palestinians have died, 80% of the population has run away from their homes and a quarter is dying of hunger amid a deteriorating human destruction. Large region in northern Gaza, the first goal of aggressive, is completely destroyed
Hamas has continued to attack the Israeli forces in all parts of Gaza, and says it will not release all the rest of the prisoners until Israel ends its aggressive and withdrawal. Hamas is also demanding the release of a large number of Palestinian prisoners, including top fighters.
Netanyahu has rejected those demands, called them “confusion”. He says that Israel will soon expand its aggressive in Gaza’s southern city of Rafah on the Egyptian border. More than half of Gaza’s 2.3 million people have sought refuge in Rafa after the fight somewhere else in the coastal enclave.
According to Gaza’s Health Ministry, at least 28,663 Palestinians have died since the war began, mostly women and children, who do not distinguish between citizens and fighters. More than 68,000 people have been injured in the war.
According to the hospital records, at least 11 people, including four children and five women, were killed in a air strike late Wednesday night in Central Gaza. Relatives gathered around the dead bodies wrapped in a white shroud outside the Al-Aksa Shaheed Hospital in the central city of the central city, before the remains were placed in a truck to bury the remains.
A man struggled to leave, lay down and holding a corpse on the truck, as he cried.
