GAZA (Palestine Foundation Information Center) The Hamas Movement has called on the UN, the World Health Organization and the Red Cross to take immediate action to protect the displaced civilians in Gaza and the besieged Nasser Hospital, saying that the medical facility is minimally functional and exposed to repeated attacks by the Israeli occupation forces.
“Deploying Israeli forces near the Nasser Hospital’s northern gate and ordering the displaced citizens to leave the facility portends the premeditated intent of the terrorist Zionist occupation to commit a crime against the citizens sheltering in the hospital, which came under constant fire from murderous and fascist Israeli snipers over the past days,” Hamas said in a statement on Tuesday.
In another statement, Hamas strongly denounced the deliberate Israeli drone attack on two Palestinian journalists working for Al Jazeera satellite channel in Gaza today, describing it as a “systematic practice aimed at dissuading journalists from covering the occupation’s crimes in Gaza.”
The Movement called on international human rights organizations to condemn this “heinous crime,” and urged the International Court of Justice to document it and other crimes as a prelude to prosecuting Israeli war criminals.
