In a move that has shocked many, Israeli forces have taken control of Kamal Adwan Hospital in Gaza. This hospital, one of the few still operating in the northern part of Gaza, was forced to evacuate patients and staff. The hospital's director was taken into custody, with Israel alleging ties to Hamas. The World Health Organization has expressed grave concerns, as the evacuation poses significant risks to the patients' survival. The hospital is a critical healthcare provider for the towns in the northernmost part of Gaza, including Jabaliya. Recently, an Israeli strike on the hospital resulted in the deaths of five medical personnel. Now, with the military takeover, the fate of the remaining staff and patients is uncertain. The hospital that received evacuated patients is reportedly struggling with a lack of medical supplies, water, and electricity. Fires were seen at Kamal Adwan, but Israel claims they are unrelated to their raid. The takeover comes after months of intense fighting in the area, as part of Israel's offensive against Hamas. The future of medical care in the region remains uncertain.
