Palestinian Red Crescent: Al-Quds Hospital in Rafah Evacuated due to Occupation Threats

The Palestinian Red Crescent Society (PRCS) said that it evacuated the Society’s Al-Quds Hospital from the Mawasi Rafah area to the Mawasi Khan Yunis area.

PRCS said in a statement that the evacuation came after the non-stop Israeli occupation’s threats, the ongoing artillery and air bombardment in its vicinity and the complete evacuation of the surrounding area of residents.

Earlier yesterday, the Society announced the killing of one of the staff of Al-Quds Field Hospital after his home in Al-Bureij Camp in the Central Governorate was targeted, bringing the death toll of the Society’s staff to 30, of whom 17 were martyred while performing their humanitarian duty since the start of the aggression on the Gaza Strip.

Medical sources confirmed yesterday that all hospitals in Rafah Governorate were out of service except for Tal Al-Sultan Maternity Hospital.
