Occupied West Bank (QNN)- Israeli occupation forces raided the Thabet Thabet Hospital in Tulkarem in the occupied West Bank on Monday and fired stun grenades during the raid. There were 81 patients inside the hospital during the raid, including 10 infants at the prematurity section and 7 in the ICU, according to the Palestinian Health Ministry. The Palestinian health minister Mai al-Kaili condemned the raid as a "new Israeli crime that contradicts all international conventions and norms, and the Geneva conventions." She also went on to appeal to the international community to "intervene to protect the Palestinian people and put an end to the repeated Israeli assaults." Israeli occupation forces attacked three Palestinian hospitals in the West Bank and the Gaza Strip last month. Last December, Israeli forces raided Palestine Medical Complex and fired tear gas canisters and rubber-coated rounds randomly at medical staff and patients, injuring a pregnant woman by a rubber-coated round in her shoulder and a paramedic in his arm.
