Qatar and Saudi Arabia condemned Israeli raid at Al-Shifa Hospital.
Israeli military destroyed Al-Shifa Hospital. Israeli forces destroyed the specialised surgeries building at Al-Shifa Hospital, causing extensive damage to the building’s interior, including a warehouse for medicine and medical equipment, Al Jazeera reported.
The Israeli military tore apart the building, destroying partitions, walls, and all medical equipment.
Meanwhile, Israeli troops have been interrogating around 200 people, who have been blindfolded, in the hospital, including 30 who were stripped of their clothes and taken to the courtyard.
The fate of these individuals remains unknown. The failure to confirm Israeli allegations of Hamas’ presence in the hospital has led to massive destruction, renewed attacks on the building, and redeploying troops at the hospital gates.

The UN Security Council (UNSC) approved a resolution Wednesday calling for “urgent and extended humanitarian pauses and corridors throughout the Gaza Strip” after four failed attempts to find consensus on the Israel-Gaza war.
The UNSC underlined that these extended pauses must be implemented for a “sufficient number of days” to let aid pass.

“This resolution really focuses on children, it has the word ‘children’ in it 14 times,” says France24’s New York and United Nations correspondent Jessica Le Masurier.
The 15-member council broke the deadlock and adopted a resolution that additionally demanded the unconditional and immediate release of all captives detained by Hamas.
The resolution sponsored by Malta was put to a vote on Wednesday, but the veto powers of the United States, Russia, and Britain abstained. Meanwhile, 12 members remained to vote in favour.
