Israeli war crimes in Gaza not possible without Western support: Hamas
Hamas says Israel could not have committed all these atrocities against the Palestinian people without the staunch support of Western governments.
Basem Naim, a senior official in Hamas' politburo, said Israel’s airstrikes on the northern part of the besieged Gaza Strip, where its forces keep attacking hospitals, could not have happened without “the protection of Western countries.”
In a Saturday statement, the Gaza Health Ministry said the regime’s forces have twice entered Kamal Adwan Hospital in Beit Lahia over the past 24 hours and opened fire at parts of the complex.
They detained all-male medical staff at the hospital “while confining women in one of the hospital rooms without water or food,” said the statement.
"The current situation inside Kamal Adwan Hospital is alarmingly deteriorating.”
“The total number of people inside the hospital is 600, including patients, wounded, medical staff and companions," the ministry said.
It said two children were killed in the intensive care unit after the hospital’s generators stopped working, and Israeli forces targeted the oxygen facilities.
Kamal Adwan Hospital, the main facility serving the area of north Gaza, is now running low on supplies and is in desperate need of aid, according to health authorities.
“One of the darkest moments of the Gaza conflict is unfolding in the north of the Strip,” the United Nation’s human rights chief Volker Turk said on Friday.
And World Health Organization (WHO) chief Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said since Israel’s raid on the hospital, the health agency has “lost touch with the personnel there.”
“This development is deeply disturbing given the number of patients being served and people sheltering there,” he said on X.
Israel’s genocidal war on Gaza has claimed the lives of at least 42,924 people over the last year, according to health authorities. The United States, Tel Aviv’s staunch ally, has poured a record of at least $17.9 billion into the regime's war machine ever since, a report said earlier this month.
