The Government Information Office in Gaza announced on Thursday that the Israeli occupation army bombed 8 hospitals during the past three days, and that it caused 18 hospitals to be out of service since the start of the “aggression” on the Gaza Strip on October 7.
The office said: “As part of its dirty, criminal war on hospitals, Israel bombed the courtyard of Al-Shifa Hospital last night with an artillery shell, and a short while ago it bombed the gate of Al-Nasr Hospital.”
He stressed that "the Israel's permission to bomb hospitals and turn them into military targets is a 'war crime' according to international humanitarian law, and is criminalized by 16 international agreements and UN resolutions that impose protection for these health facilities."
He added: "Despite this supposed protection, the occupation (..) has so far directly bombed 8 hospitals over the past three days, leaving dozens of martyrs and wounded, and causing 18 hospitals to be out of service since the beginning of the aggression."
