Israeli Troops Remove Staff & Patients From Gaza Hospital

DEIR AL-BALAH, Gaza Strip (AP) — Gaza’s Health Ministry says Israeli troops have stormed one of the last hospitals operating in the territory’s north and forced many of the staff and patients outside. Then they had to remove their clothes in winter weather. Friday’s incident was the latest assault on Kamal Adwan Hospital. Staff say it has been hit multiple times in the past three months by Israeli troops waging an offensive against Hamas fighters in the surrounding neighborhoods. Israel’s military says Hamas uses the hospital as a base. It did not provide evidence, and hospital officials have denied it.
