The director of Kamal Adwan Hospital, Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya, announced that Israeli occupation forces targeted the hospital for the fifth time on Tuesday, describing the attacks as horrific and merciless.

In a statement, he explained that the hospital in northern Gaza was subjected to a brutal assault by Israeli drones, which focused their fire on medical workers. He pointed out that the drones dropped bombs filled with shrapnel, which injured individuals in the hospital. 

Dr. Abu Safiya confirmed that three medical staff members at Kamal Adwan Hospital were injured, one of whom is in critical condition and undergoing surgery in the besieged hospital's operating room.

We are exhausted from the ongoing violence and atrocities," he said, asking, "Why are we subjected to such brutality [every day]?"

He emphasized that the Israeli regime is systematically targeting the hospital and that the situation has become extremely dangerous.

In this context, Mahmoud Bassal, the spokesperson for the Civil Defense in Gaza, stressed that the occupation is committing acts of ethnic cleansing in northern Gaza, pointing to a catastrophic situation in Beit Lahiya and other areas.

"The residents of the northern areas in the Gaza Strip have not received adequate food and drinking water for 60 days," Bassal explained. 

Earlier, the Gaza Civil Defense confirmed that "the occupation continues to completely disrupt the Civil Defense system and has halted its vehicles in the northern Gaza governorate for the 42nd consecutive day, with citizens suffering from an absence of humanitarian services."

The Civil Defense also announced, in a statement including statistics on the actions against its teams, that the occupation's military has killed 88, injured 304, and arrested 21 of its personnel since the onset of the genocidal war.
