All Palestinian doctors at the Kamal Awdan hospital in the besieged northern Gaza have been arrested or expelled by Israeli soldiers except for one, the Palestinian health ministry said in a press release on Monday. 

The remaining doctor is a paediatrician and there was an urgent need for surgical teams to be sent to the hospital by international organisations, the ministry added. 

"The ministry also calls on anyone with surgery skills to go to Kamal Adwan hospital to save as many wounded and sick people as possible."

The top commander of Iran's Revolutionary Guards has warned Israel it would face "bitter consequences" after its attack on Iranian military sites, local media said on Monday.

Guards chief Hossein Salami, quoted by Tasnim news agency, said Israel had "failed to achieve its ominous goals" with its air raids on Saturday.

He said the Israeli attack was a sign of "miscalculation and helplessness" as Israel wages two wars on Gaza and Lebanon.

"Its bitter consequences will be unimaginable" for Israel, Salami warned according to Tasnim.

Good morning Middle East Eye readers, 

Here are the latest updates from the Israeli war on Gaza and Lebanon, now in its 388th day:

  • Israeli strikes continued across Gaza on Monday morning, killing at least five Palestinians in separate attacks on Gaza City, the Nuseirat refugee camp and Rafah, according to Arabic media.

  • The bombardment comes as the assault on north Gaza continues for a fourth week, where Israeli forces are besieging 100,000 Palestinians, relentlessly bombing them, starving them and denying them access to health care. 

  • In Lebanon, the death toll from an Israeli strike on an ambulance centre on Sunday has risen to seven, according to the Lebanese health ministry. Israeli forces have killed a total of 168 paramedics in Lebanon since the start of the war, the ministry added. 

  • US and Israeli spy chiefs are meeting Qatari Foreign Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al-Thani in Doha to discuss a ceasefire in Gaza. This comes after Egypt proposed a two-day truce in hopes that it would lead to a full ceasefire.
