Israeli forces besiege Kamal Adwan Hospital in Gaza

Israeli forces imposed a siege on Kamal Adwan Hospital in Beit Lahia, northern Gaza, on Friday morning, ordering medical staff, patients and all those inside to leave to allow troops to storm the facility, Wafa news agency reported.

The hospital remains under tight blockade, with 91 patients still inside. Urgent appeals have been made for intervention to provide critical medical supplies, food and other essential resources to support the patients and staff.

The hospital has been under relentless Israeli bombardment, including drone strikes targeting its grounds and roof.

Yesterday, five hospital staff members were killed in an Israeli air strike that hit the facility.
