Head of al-Shifa hospital says bombardments continue as Israeli PM says ‘no alternative to victory’
The biggest hospital in Gaza is “totally surrounded”, its director has said as fighting raged around it and Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu vowed to press on with Israel’s advance in the territory with “full force”.
Heavy fighting between Israeli forces and Hamas has trapped thousands of people in Gaza’s hospitals, and medics and aid workers have warned patients will die in the crippled facilities unless there is a pause in the battle.
