The Israeli occupation forces blew up a robot on Monday near Al-Awda Hospital in Tel al-Zaatar, north of the Gaza Strip, injuring staff members and causing damage to the hospital.
Yesterday, Sunday, the occupation forces carried out extensive bulldozing and destruction operations around Al-Awda Hospital and the Indonesian Hospital in the northern Gaza Strip.
Israeli military vehicles, including tanks and bulldozers, systematically demolished residential neighborhoods and homes in the area surrounding the two hospitals, reducing entire residential blocks to rubble.
A few days ago, the Al-Awda Hospital administration also appealed to UN agencies to intervene to extinguish a fire raging in the medicine warehouse as a result of Israeli shelling, warning that its continuation would exacerbate the health disaster and threaten the lives of patients and medical staff.
Al-Awda Hospital is a private medical facility operating in the Gaza Strip. It has two branches, one in the central Gaza Strip and the other in Jabalia Camp. Despite its limited resources due to the Israeli blockade and genocide, it continues to provide limited care to patients and the injured.
Since launching its war of extermination on the Gaza Strip on October 7, 2023, the Israeli occupation army has deliberately targeted Gaza's hospitals and healthcare system, putting most of them out of service, endangering the lives of patients and the wounded, according to Palestinian and UN data.
The Gaza Strip has been suffering from a catastrophic humanitarian and relief crisis since Israel closed the crossings on March 2, preventing the entry of food, medicine, aid, and fuel, while its army escalates its genocidal campaign against the Palestinian population of the territory.
