GMO calls for int’l action to protect medical facilities and personnel in Gaza

Gaza’s Government Media Office (GMO) said on Sunday that the Israeli occupation army systematically target hospitals and medical personnel in the Gaza Strip, especially with relentless attacks on the Kamal Adwan Hospital in northern Gaza.

AhlulBayt News Agency: Gaza’s Government Media Office (GMO) said on Sunday that the Israeli occupation army systematically target hospitals and medical personnel in the Gaza Strip, especially with relentless attacks on the Kamal Adwan Hospital in northern Gaza.

“Since the start of the genocidal war on the Gaza Strip, the occupation army has been targeting the health system in preplanned manner through destroying and burning hospitals and medical centers and putting them out of service,” GMO said in a statement.

GMO described the Israeli drone attack on the Kamal Adwan Hospital that led to the injury of its director Hussam Abu Safiya a “horrific crime” and a “cowardly assassination attempt.”

GMO called on the international community and its organizations to condemn the renewed Israeli attack on the Kamal Adwan Hospital and provide medical facilities and personnel with protection against Israeli attacks.

Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya, director of the Kamal Adwan Hospital in northern Gaza, was reportedly injured in an Israeli attack on the hospital last night.

Local sources said that an Israeli quadcopter dropped a bombed on Abu Safiya’s office immediately after he left the operation room, injuring him in his left leg.

Abu Safiya is now in the hospital’s intensive care unit and only given some painkillers as the besieged and dilapidated facility lacks the means to provide him with proper medical assistance.
