Kamal Adwan in Beit Lahia was partially destroyed and critical patients are at grave risk, the UN body says
Israel’s “systematic dismantling of the health system” combined with a siege of the population in the north of the coastal strip over the past 80 days “puts the lives of the 75,000 Palestinians remaining in the area at risk”,
Local sources in Beit Lahia said that most of the medics and nurses detained in Friday’s raid had been released but the hospital’s director, Hussam Abu Safiya, was still unaccounted for.
“Kamal Adwan is now empty,” the statement said. “On Friday evening, the remaining 15 critical patients, 50 caregivers and 20 health workers were transferred to Indonesian hospital, which lacks the necessary equipment and supplies to provide adequate care. The movement and treatment of these critical patients under such conditions pose grave risks to their survival.
On Saturday, the IDF distributed messages to residents of another area of northern Gaza, ordering them to leave.
