Israeli forces apprehend over 240 Palestinians in raid on Gaza hospital 

Israeli forces apprehended in excess of 240 Palestinians, encompassing medical personnel from a Gaza medical facility, asserting it functioned as a Hamas command hub. 

Israeli forces apprehended more than 240 Palestinians, comprising several medical personnel from a north Gaza hospital that was raided on Friday, including its head, as reported by both the Health Ministry in the enclave and the military of Israel. The Health Ministry expressed concern for the welfare of Hussam Abu Safiya, who leads the Kamal Adwan Hospital, as some personnel released by the Israeli military late on Friday indicated that he had suffered physical abuse at the hands of soldiers. 

The Israeli military asserted that the hospital had been utilized as a command center for Hamas military activities and that the individuals detained were suspected militants. They noted that Abu Safiya was taken for interrogation due to suspicions of him being a Hamas operative. On Friday, Hamas rejected Israel's claim that its fighters had been operating out of the hospital throughout the ongoing 15-month-long Gaza war, insisting that no fighters had been present there. The group had not provided commentary regarding the 240 arrests as of yet. 

In a statement issued on Saturday, Hamas appealed to the United Nations and other appropriate international organizations for immediate intervention to safeguard the remaining hospitals and medical establishments in northern Gaza as well as to provide them with necessary supplies. 


The organization also called for the deployment of U.N. observers to the medical facilities in Gaza to counter the Israeli claims that these establishments were being utilized for military operations.
