Israel ends Kamal Adwan hospital raid after emptying it of doctors

The Israeli military said it ended a three-day raid of north Gaza's last working hospital after emptying it of doctors. 

The assault began before dawn on Friday after nearly three weeks of besieging the health centre. Fighter jets bombed the hospital facilities before troops stormed it, assaulting and arresting doctors, patients and displaced people taking shelter there. 

The Palestinian health ministry said all doctors at the hospital had been either arrested or expelled by Israeli soldiers during the attack, except for one paediatrician. 

The Israeli military said it "apprehended approximately 100 terrorists from the compound". 

However, while the raid on the hospital has been concluded, the assault on northern Gaza continues, the military added.

According to its unverified assessments, nearly 50,000 Palestinians have been forced to leave their homes in the ongoing assault on north Gaza, which was launched on 5 October. Nearly 600 more have been abducted by the army.
