Al-Shifa Besieged
Earlier today, an Al Mayadeen correspondent reported that the occupation's tanks have renewed their efforts to storm the Al-Shifa Medical Complex from the southern side.
Our correspondent reported that the occupation forces bulldozed the areas in the vicinity of the maternity section at Shifa Hospital, adding that IOF tanks are opening fire on anyone attempting to leave.
He also added that the IOF detained a number of medical workers and technical staff at the hospital.

On another note, the Palestinian Ministry of Health in Gaza reported earlier that the IOF had demolished several medical departments during their raid on Al-Shifa.
The ministry specified that the IOF demolished the radiology department and detonated the burns trauma and nephrology departments.
In a statement, Dr. Abu Salmiya said that the departments of maternity, emergency, and surgery have also been targeted, among others.
He also told reporters that the hospital had completely run out of food, water, and electricity, noting that the IOF bombed the hospital's main water pipe.
Although the oxygen reserves have been depleted, Abu Salmiya stated that hospital staff have chosen to stay in the building, refusing to evacuate without the patients.
