Israeli army demands evacuation of Indonesian Hospital in Gaza within 4 hours

The Israeli army has called for the evacuation of the Indonesian Hospital in northern Gaza Strip within four hours, a Palestinian Health Ministry official said on Thursday.

The Israeli army wants to enter the hospital for “military operations” and has demanded its evacuation within four hours, Health Ministry Director General Dr. Munir Al-Borsh told Al Jazeera Media Network.

Al-Borsh said that the Indonesian Hospital has been besieged by the Israeli army and continued strikes are taking place in its vicinity.

Noting that there are currently about 200 people in the hospital, the official said that 450 patients left the hospital on Wednesday.

There are 65 bodies in the hospital that could not be buried, and 50 of them have been waiting in the hospital garden for more than 10 days, Al-Borsh said.
