GAZA (Palestine Foundation Information Center) The Hamas Movement said bombing and storming Kamal Adwan Hospital shows Israel’s insistence on carrying out ethnic cleansing and forced displacement against Palestinians in northern Gaza.
In a statement on Friday, Hamas called on the World Health Organization to send an international committee to investigate the Israeli repetitive crimes against Kamal Adwan Hospital and the entire health system in Gaza.
It stressed that Israel’s storming of the Martyr Kamal Adwan Hospital, which led to the martyrdom of more than 30 people in addition to dozens of wounded and missing under the rubble, is an insistence on implementing its campaign of ethnic cleansing and forced displacement, and its criminal destruction of all life aspects in the northern Gaza, especially hospitals.
It also called on the international community, the United Nations, and its institutions to break its shameful silence towards Israeli brutal crimes and to take urgent measures to stop the ongoing violations of the Israeli occupation.
For its part, the Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor said that Israel is systematically working to forcefully put hospitals in the northern Gaza Strip out of service, through direct and repeated military targeting, imposing a stifling siege, and killing, injuring and arresting patients, the wounded and medical staff, while continuing its crime of forced displacement against all Palestinian residents in northern Gaza.
The Euro-Med Monitor reported in a statement on Friday that the Israeli occupation forces continued their military attacks against civilians in the Beit Lahia Project in northern Gaza early this morning, launching violent raids targeting homes and streets before besieging Kamal Adwan Hospital, which is still partially operating along with two other hospitals in the northern Gaza Strip.
It called on the International Committee of the Red Cross and the World Health Organization to take all necessary measures to reach hospitals in northern Gaza, secure the entry of medicines, medical supplies, food, and medical staff, and to assume their responsibilities to ensure the protection of patients, the wounded and medical staff, and provide them with humanitarian assistance.
The Euro-Med renewed its call to all states and the UN to implement their international legal obligations to stop the crime of genocide in the Gaza Strip, impose a comprehensive arms embargo on Israel, hold it accountable and punish it for all its crimes, and to take all effective measures to protect Palestinian civilians there, prevent their forced displacement and ensure their return to their areas of residence.
It also demanded the release of all Palestinian detainees who have been arbitrarily arrested and allow all forms of humanitarian food and non-food aid, especially life-saving aid, to enter quickly and without obstacles in a manner that meets the needs of all residents of the Gaza Strip, especially in the northern areas, and ensure the withdrawal of the Israeli occupation army from the entire Gaza Strip.
