The Israeli Occupation military, as reported by Hebrew Channel 12, claimed that it had detained 80 fighters from the resistance within Gaza City's Shifa Medical Complex and had gained full control over the facility following a targeted operation.

 

This operation, conducted jointly by military and Shin Bet forces, continues at the medical complex.

 

Earlier, Gaza's Ministry of Health reported a fire outbreak at the entrance of Al-Shifa Medical Complex, resulting in cases of suffocation among displaced individuals, including women and children.

 

Communication lines were also disrupted. The ministry highlighted the dire situation of those trapped inside the specialized surgery and emergency reception areas, with casualties reported due to the intensity of the fire and targeting of individuals near windows.

 

The Ministry of Health urgently appealed to international organizations to intervene and halt the ongoing assault on patients, medical personnel, and displaced individuals within the hospital premises.

 

Reports from Palestinian sources suggested that Israeli Occupation military vehicles were firing towards Al-Shifa Medical Complex and its vicinity in western Gaza City.
