The World Health Organization Spokesperson Christian Lindmeier, on Tuesday, said, "Over 160 of the healthcare workers have died on duty while taking care of those injured and diseased," adding that "these are the people keeping the health system going through the dedication they have somehow found a way to keep some level of service going."

Lindmeier also urged the lifting of restrictions on medical aid to the Strip, noting that operations are being performed without any anesthetics; even amputation operations.

Moreover, the Israeli occupation threatened to bomb Al-Rantisi Children’s Hospital after giving orders to evacuate it, the Ministry of Health in Gaza said.

Israeli occupation forces once again are pressuring hospitals to do the impossible: evacuate. 

The Ministry of Health said the lives of about 70 children in Al-Rantisi Hospital are at risk following "Israel's" threats, stressing that the international community must act not only to dissuade "Israel" from threatening to bomb the hospital but also to prevent the further collapse of the healthcare system in the Gaza Strip, which is already suffering greatly.

The Health Ministry also held the international community fully responsible for protecting medical personnel and the wounded Palestinians who are suffering in the Gaza Strip.

With an extreme shortage of fuel, the targeting of healthcare centers and hospitals, and the unavailability of medication and anesthesia, the healthcare system in #Gaza is no longer able to provide services to the wounded, reported the #Gazan Ministry of Health.

The occupation's threats come in conjunction with the occupation's bombing of the Al-Quds building in Al-Shifa Medical Complex, where it targeted with a missile the last floor of the building, which houses hundreds of wounded, displaced, and medical personnel. It also targeted solar panels in the main building inside the complex.

The Israeli occupation forces targeted the third floor of al-Rantisi Children's Hospital in Gaza, on Monday, a month after the beginning of the Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip, affecting infrastructure and necessities.

Fifteen Palestinians were martyred during the bombing of the Abu Alwan family residence in the Tal al-Sultan neighborhood, located west of the city of Rafah in the southern Gaza Strip. Thirteen more died due to the occupation's bombing of a residence with its occupants in al-Zawaida area in the central Gaza Strip.

Furthermore, three Palestinians were martyred and six others sustained injuries when they arrived at the Indonesian Hospital, following an Israeli airstrike on a residence on al-Ajarma Street in Jabalia in the northern Gaza Strip.

Within the scope of the Israeli ground invasion, multiple confrontations unfolded between Palestinian Resistance and occupation forces in several locations: Gaza City, along the southern Gaza Sea coastline, the western Gaza coastline, the eastern central region, and the northwest of Gaza.

This incident marks another instance during this offensive in which the occupation attacked hospitals in the Gaza Strip. On October 17, the Israeli military committed a heinous crime by directly targeting the Al-Ahli Baptist Hospital, resulting in the loss of hundreds of lives.

The occupation then threatened to bomb Al-Shifa Medical Complex and commit a new massacre, which housed displaced and injured people from different areas.
