Head of Kuwait Specialty Field Hospital in Gaza Says Israeli Strike Killed a Guard
Briefly

An Israeli air strike at the Kuwait Specialty Field Hospital in southern Gaza killed a security guard and injured ten patients, two days post an attack on the Al Ahli Arab Hospital, which was claimed by Israel to target a Hamas command center. Dr. Suhaib al-Hamss, the director, highlighted the strike's devastation, noting the hospital's significant role, treating up to 3,500 patients daily amidst a dire healthcare crisis, worsened by Israeli blockades preventing aid. The World Health Organization reported 33 out of 36 hospitals in Gaza have been damaged, exacerbating an increasing medicine shortage, while accusations of Hamas exploiting healthcare facilities remain unproven.
