‘Save the sick, wounded, and children of Gaza from certain death’
The administration at the Al-Aqsa Hospital says one of the two generators at the the central Gaza facility is now out of service.
“Al-Aqsa Hospital currently has more than 700 wounded and sick people, and serves more than one million people and displaced people in the central governorate,” it said in a press release, posted by the Gaza Ministry of Health.
“We condemn the attempts of the Israeli occupation to subjugate the hospital and put it out of service in a crime against humanity and against international law … This comes within the framework of the crime of genocide against civilians, children and women.”
The hospital urged the international community and regional countries to “save the sick, wounded, and children of Gaza from certain death”.

Death toll from Israeli invasion of Bureij refugee camp, central Gaza, hits 102 in 24 hours
Air attacks took place on the Bureij refugee camp and more residential buildings have been targeted and destroyed.
The people who are inside are residents who have been trying to leave their homes since yesterday, since the surge in attacks started and the invasion of the eastern part of the central area of Gaza began.
At least five more people arrived at the hospital in two separate ambulance vehicles, including one child – as we have seen here in the courtyard of the hospital. That brings the total number of people who’ve been killed in the past 24 hours to 102.
We were told by paramedics in the ambulance vehicle that there are still more people at the targeted site.
