The Hamas Movement strongly condemned the Israeli evacuation order of the Indonesian Hospital in the northern Gaza Strip on Tuesday.
“The Israeli army’s forced evacuation of medical staff, patients and displaced persons in the Indonesian Hospital at gunpoint came as part of the war crimes, ethnic cleansing and forced displacement operations that it is carrying out in the northern Gaza Strip,” the Movement said in a statement.
“This is a systematic targeting of hospitals to put them out of service and destroy all aspects of life in the Gaza Strip.”
“The international community must break its silence and unjustified helplessness in the face of the crimes of the fascist occupation, especially in light of the unprecedented violations of all laws of war, including the need to protect civilian facilities and hospitals.”
Israeli troops forced the evacuation of the Indonesian Hospital in northern Gaza and many patients, some of them on foot, arrived at another hospital miles away in Gaza City, the territory’s health ministry said on Tuesday.
The Indonesian Hospital is one of the Gaza Strip’s few still partially functioning hospitals, on its northern edge, an area that has been under an intense Israeli military offensive for nearly three months.
