Troops raid Kamal Adwan hospital and assault patients and medical staff after bombing cuts oxygen supplies to vulnerable children

Israeli forces stormed the last operational hospital in the besieged north Gaza. The attack on the Kamal Adwan hospital, located in Beit Lahia northwest of Jabalia, was launched around 2am local time, shortly after a WHO delegation left the hospital.

It began with air strikes targeting the hospital and its courtyards, including the medical oxygen generator, said Dr. Munir al-Bursh, the director general of the Palestinian health ministry in Gaza.

The bombing led to the death of children inside the hospital and wounded medical staff. “Instead of receiving aid, we receive tanks… which are shelling the [hospital] building,” said Dr Hussam Abu Safiya, the director of Kamal Adwan hospital.

    America is a corporation, masquerading as a democracy, whose sole goal is generating profit. Israel’s genocide is a small part of a greater holy war which is extremely profitable.

    Desert Storm 2.0 netted the MIC trillions (with a capital T) of dollars in profits, and most of that was built on lies. Another one is financially… irresistible. You think the devils in skin-suits are gonna let a little genocide get in their way? There is literally nothing more important in the universe to them, than the profits they will make from this.

      No I just wasn’t educated enough to understand how they where profiting off of this enough to destroy its credibility even further (somehow.)

      I didn’t think weapons sales was enough to cover it, but hey, money talks.
