The WHO, however, said that the Kamal Advan hospital had ceased to function due to the Israeli military operation and was now empty. At the same time, the organization emphasized that it is appalled by the operation and that hospitals have once again become a battlefield. “The systematic destruction of the health system and the more than 80-day siege of northern Gaza threaten the lives of the 75,000 Palestinians who remain in the area,” she also warned. The Kamal Advan hospital has already been the target of attacks by Israeli forces, who have been attacking the northern part of the Palestinian enclave for several weeks.
