government media office in Gaza said that these ongoing massacres committed by the Israeli occupation, in light of its collapse of the health system, the destruction and burning of hospitals and putting them out of service, in light of the enormous pressure on medical staff and what remains of surgical operating rooms, in light of the shortage of health and medical supplies, in light of the closure of the crossings to the travel of the wounded and patients and the non-entry of fuel, and in light of the catastrophic humanitarian and health conditions.

The office condemned in
the strongest terms the Israeli occupation’s perpetration of this horrific massacre against a field hospital that provides medical services to dozens of patients and wounded, all of whom are civilians, holding the Israeli occupation and the US administration fully responsible for the continuation of these massacres against the displaced and civilians.
