Hamas condemns Israeli strike on medical depot in northern Gaza

Hamas condemned an Israeli attack on a medicine depot at al-Awda hospital in Jabalia, northern Gaza, calling it a continued effort to dismantle Gaza’s collapsing health system.

“[Israel] continues its horrific violation of international laws and humanitarian norms by directly targeting hospitals and inhabited homes, relying on American political and military cover and a shameful state of international impotence,” Hamas said in a statement on Telegram.

It urged the UN and international community to take “immediate action… to ensure an end to the horrific massacre in the Gaza Strip”.

On Thursday, the strike ignited a fire at the hospital’s medical storage facility.
