The Israeli army denied that the ICU had no electricity, saying power was running there at all times.”We have been in touch with the hospital, closely monitoring the situation and making sure that they have sufficient supplies,” Colonel Moshe Tetro, who is coordinating the army’s humanitarian efforts at the hospital told reporters in an online briefing.Tetro rejected Gaza health ministry’s claim that some patients had died at the facility since the army began its operation.Tetro said those claims were a “pure lie”.”No Palestinian died in the ICU because of the IDF operation,” he said.The war started when Hamas launched its unprecedented attack on October 7 that resulted in the deaths of about 1,160 people in Israel, mostly civilians, according to an AFP tally of Israeli figures.Israel’s retaliatory campaign in Gaza has killed at least 29,195 people, mostly women and children, according to the latest count by the territory’s Hamas-run health ministry.For weeks, Israel has concentrated its military operations in Khan Yunis.”WHO repeats its calls for the protection of patients, health workers, health infrastructure, and civilians. Hospitals must not be militarised, misused, or attacked,” it said.
