Not less than twenty eight prematurely born babies have been urgently evacuated from Al Shifa Hospital in Gaza to Egypt on Monday.
The evacuation followed after the collapse of medical services during Israel’s recent military assault on Gaza City, resulting in the death of several babies after their incubators were damaged.
According to a report, Israeli forces took control of Al Shifa last week, claiming the search for a Hamas tunnel network, while conflicting reports emerged regarding the departure of patients and medical staff.
According to the World Health Organization, the evacuated infants, facing serious infections, were initially transferred to a hospital in Rafah before being sent to Egypt.
