Israeli Forces Arrest Entire Medical Staff at Kamal Adwan Hospital, Demolish Surrounding Homes
Gaza (Quds News Network)- The ongoing Israeli attacks on northern Gaza have escalated, with the entire medical staff at Kamal Adwan Hospital detained, and neighboring homes razed as part of an intensified savage campaign targeting Gaza’s healthcare infrastructure and civilian areas. This comes amid broader actions involving blockades, starvation tactics, and the destruction of critical facilities across the area. Local sources confirmed to Quds News Network that Israeli forces withdrew from Kamal Adwan Hospital after a two-day incursion that left the area devastated, with many surrounding homes burned or destroyed. During the incursion, all doctors, nurses, and healthcare workers at the hospital were kidnapped, with several sustaining injuries in the process. Reports indicate that women were confined within a room inside the hospital without access to food or water. The Ministry of Health urgently called for international and humanitarian organizations to intervene, emphasizing the need to protect patients and medical staff from Israel's assaults. The kidnapping and detention of the entire male medical staff have rendered the hospital’s operations impossible, severely impacting Gaza's healthcare capacity. Further intensifying the crisis, Gaza’s Civil Defense reported that it has been paralyzed by continuous Israeli attacks, rendering it unable to respond to widespread calls for assistance from residents of Jabalia and Nazla in northern Gaza. Israeli forces reportedly targeted the area west of Jabalia refugee Camp, particularly around Al-Falouja neighborhood, although no ground incursion was reported in the Beit Lahia project area. Meanwhile, artillery and airstrikes continued to pound central Gaza, with heavy shelling reported in Nuseirat camp and along the Maghazi entrance, leading to more fatalities and injuries. In total, 88 Palestinians have been killed since Friday morning in targeted airstrikes on residential homes across Gaza. The Health Ministry, Civil Defense, and humanitarian groups have repeatedly called for immediate international action to address the escalating humanitarian crisis, citing the ongoing blockade, destruction of critical infrastructure, and mass casualties as evidence of the urgent need for intervention.
