Israeli warplanes have carried out air raids near Gaza’s largest hospital that is filled with patients and tens of thousands of people seeking shelter, the Associated Press reported citing witnesses.
Israel says the raid was carried out because Hamas has a command post under the hospital, without providing evidence.
Residents said the latest strikes destroyed most of the roads leading to Shifa Hospital in Gaza City, in the northern part of the besieged territory.
“Reaching the hospital has become increasingly difficult,” Mahmoud al-Sawah, who is sheltering in the hospital, said. “It seems they want to cut off the area.”
