Israeli forces demand people leave Indonesian Hospital

Israeli forces are ordering people inside the Indonesian Hospital in northern Gaza to leave immediately, our correspondent on the ground reports. Israeli forces are continuing to fire in the vicinity of the medical facility. Most of those trapped in the hospital are women and children – some are injured and cannot move at all.

But the move to forcibly evacuate the Indonesian Hospital and the attacks on other nearby health centres come as the Israeli army expands its operations in the northern Gaza Strip.

Israeli claims ‘terrorists’ targeted in deadly attacks on Gaza shelters

The Israeli military says it launched air strikes on 40 sites across the Gaza Strip over the past day, claiming all were “terrorist gathering points and Hamas command and control centres”.

Dozens of Palestinian fighters “operated from within these areas”. It confirmed some of the targets it struck were schools turned into shelters, many of which it has destroyed since the start of the war on Gaza.

As we reported earlier, at least 70 Palestinians were confirmed killed as a result of the attacks on Thursday, with the real number expected to be much higher. The intensified strikes come as Israeli and Hamas delegations are expected to hold mediated talks in Qatar today.


Israeli troops attacking vicinity of al-Awda Hospital

Israeli forces are intensively shelling the vicinity of al-Awda Hospital in central Gaza, our correspondent on the ground reports.

A UN report this week said there were at least 136 Israeli attacks on 27 hospitals and 12 other medical facilities that inflicted significant casualties among doctors, nurses, medics, and other civilians while causing significant damage to, if not the complete destruction of, civilian infrastructure.

The 23-page report looked at the period from October 7, 2023, to June 30, 2024. Attacking hospitals is a war crime under international law.
