A Jordanian field hospital in Khan Yunis sustained substantial damage due to Israeli shelling, as disclosed by the Jordanian armed forces on Wednesday.

Despite the severity of the damage, the hospital is determined to maintain its operations, the official statement pointed out.

Moreover, clashes unfolded near the hospital in the recent hours. A hospital staff member sustained injuries and is scheduled for evacuation to Jordan for further treatment, the statement added.

It further highlighted that a Gaza resident, who was undergoing medical treatment in one of the intensive care units, suffered injuries from shrapnel and bullets during the aggression.

The number of Palestinians killed so far in the Israeli aggression on Gaza has risen to 24,448, in addition to 61,504 injured, since October 7. 

According to the Ministry of Health in Gaza, Hepatitis A is spreading in Gaza due to overpopulation in refugee-full areas.

The UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) has previously warned against the spread of infectious diseases in the Gaza Strip.

'Every single person' at risk of hunger

Out of 2.2 million Palestinians in Gaza, every single one of them is grappling with hunger and food insecurity, UN human rights experts warned, while calling for the deliveries of sufficient aid to face the challenge of possible starvation among the entire population. 

On Wednesday, UN experts shared that “every single person in Gaza is hungry, a quarter of the population are starving and struggling to find food and drinkable water, and famine is imminent. Pregnant women are not receiving adequate nutrition and healthcare, putting their lives at risk.”

A total of 335,000 children under five also lack the needed nutrients, putting them at risk of suffering from physical stunting. 

UN personnel accused "Israel" of weaponizing starvation against the Gazan population and destroying Gaza's food system. They regarded the warmongers' tactics as "unprecedented" as no other entity was known to starve an entire people at such a rapid rate.
