The Qaryut ambulance officer Bashar al-Qaryuti told the news agency that Israeli forces hindered the work of medical teams and refused to allow them to pass through the gates.
He added that a medical crew member was detained, while the pregnant woman - who was in her sixth month - was subjected to a search despite her severe bleeding and critical condition.
