Al-Quds Hospital in the Gaza Strip is on the verge of closure

According to the director of the Shifa Medical Complex in Gaza also said that the wounded in the hospital were in a deplorable condition and said: "As a result of the ongoing bombing of Al Shifa Hospital, ambulances are unable to leave it." Meanwhile, Munir al-Barsh, director general of the Ministry of Health in Gaza, noted: “We will open a mass grave in the Shifa compound on Saturday because we are not able to bury all the dead.” Ashraf al-Qadara, a spokesman for the Gaza Ministry of Health, also said that surgical operations at the Indonesian hospital had completely stopped. Al-Qadara stressed that Israel is focusing its efforts on bombing the area around the Al-Shafa complex and other medical facilities. Meanwhile, Palestinian sources reported Friday evening that the Israeli army attacked Al-Shifa Hospital in the Gaza Strip with phosphorus bombs.

In addition, reports indicate very intense clashes between resistance fighters and Israeli occupation forces around Shifa Hospital. In response to more than 7 decades of occupation of Palestine and more than 10 years of siege of the Gaza Strip, as well as the imprisonment and torture of thousands of Palestinians, the Islamic resistance movement Hamas launched Operation Al-Aqsa Storm on October 7th. The operation is considered one of the deadliest attacks against the regime; Hamas fighters entered the occupied territories through border barriers at several points, attacked villages and killed or captured a number of Israeli soldiers. Therefore, to compensate for its defeats in resistance operations, the Zionist regime has repeatedly bombed various areas of the Gaza Strip since October 7, killing at least 11,092 Palestinians, including 4,506 children, 3,27 women and 678 elderly people. Also, the number of victims of the crimes of the Zionist regime increased to more than 27,490 people.
