Al Mayadeen's correspondent reported that Israeli soldiers opened fire inside medical departments and forced the injured and displaced to evacuate at gunpoint, only to hold them at a checkpoint as they tried to exit the hospital as ordered.
Moreover, the ministry reported an incident of damage to an oxygen tube in the Nasser Complex, causing a leakage. This led to a decrease in oxygen pressure in the medical complex, particularly in the intensive care unit, posing a threat to patients.
