As genocide continues in Gaza, more than 250 Palestinians have been killed and injured in Israeli military operation on Al-Shifa Hospital in Gaza City, the government media office.

The Israeli army raid continues since Monday, which houses thousands of ill and wounded patients, as well as displaced people.

“Israeli forces heavily opened fire as they stormed the hospital, killing and injuring more than 250 civilians,” the media office said in a statement.

Meanwhile, Israeli army has said that it killed 90 Palestinians in Gaza city over the past two days, with operations centered around Al-Shifa Hospital and its vicinity.

Additionally, 160 people have been arrested and moved to Israel, while 300 others are undergoing interrogation at the hospital site.

The statement said that Israeli troops are engaged in killings in the areas surrounding Al-Shifa Hospital. More than 32,000 Palestinians have been killed by Israel since October 7, when Palestinian soldiers Hamas retaliated to decades-long occupational crimes committed by Isarel.

As killings continue the Government Media Office in Gaza has reported that those inside Al-Shifa Hospital, including patients and medical teams, are facing dire conditions without access to food and water due to the Israeli siege initiated since Monday’s raid on the hospital.

The office stated that around 250 Palestinian civilians have been killed or injured by Israeli forces within the hospital.

The Israeli offensive against Al-Shifa Hospital and its surroundings since early Monday has put the lives of tens of thousands of Palestinians at risk in and around the hospital premises.
