hospital and you know, with in gaza is now over the operation of allegedly targeted a homeless command center hidden in the compound. israel says it's detained, the hospital director and 240 others as suspected homeless militants. the world health organization says the raid has shut down northern guns as last major medical facilities that come out odd one hospital earlier this month. receiving supplies from the world health organization. it was the last major medical facilities still functioning in northern gaza despite the fighting around it. but on friday is really forces rated the hospital, the w h o no says it was out of service. some of the patients and staff were evacuated to a hospital further south and gaza city the budget, a degree, the army in to come all odd one hospital at around 4 in the morning. they asked all

the medical stuff, the patients and visitors to go out into the courtyard to another. then they separated us into groups, the medical stuff and the patients. then they got ambulances to take us away. the but the evacuation wasn't immediate. and there's so much the patients that were evacuated were held for interrogation for 24 hours. the army didn't care about their injuries and then left them out in the cold all that time. but let me just add a bunch as, yeah. is real defended fridays rate of the hospital, seeing how my spiders had been operating from there throughout the 15 month war. and that the complex was a key strong cold. most palestinians accused is real of trying to de populate northern gaza to create a future buffer zone is real denies this and says it's military operations are aimed at preventing from us widely designated as a terror organization from recruiting in the region. i'd like to welcome to week to

serve that she is the spokes person for the world health organization and joins us now from geneva to rick. you've obviously been watching this very closely. what comes to mind for you? what can you tell us about the raid on the come all odd one hospital in northern garza as well. the 1st thing that comes to anyone mind uh is uh how it must feel to be uh, boasting and in gaza right now. and uh, to all these months, uh, what we, i see is that, uh, the access to health care is becoming non existent, especially not as we are doing everything we can everything the easy route allows us to do. but it's simply not enough. and whatever we have, data gets on the, you know, in a single rate. so a come out as one hospital. the is non folks learning more indonesian hospital. that is the north of guys. it cannot do much out. the hospital does say

we tried the best we can really, every day we try to go to hospitals, but unfortunately, half more than half of our requests to move the other night in recent months. so it's a really, it's a, it's, it's, it's a, it's a, it's a, it's a desperate situation for people there. and the only solution really is the ceasefire. and the to read as you want to, to areas to get that you're going through space. we need to try to keep the health facilities from. i would love to try perspective a health system to, to, to, to do, to, to do his work. what can you tell us about the staff and particularly the patients there? you heard a man in the report say patients were interrogated in the cold for as long as 20 for hours with little care for the injuries. and of course, they've been reports, patients were since transported to hospitals, which at this point in the war or barely functional as well. i remember the very

beginning of the, of this escalation of the conflict of conflict last october when they were 1st up, orders issued to them. okay. just because you were saying that some patients can not simply be just moved away. some, some patients need to be in a stable position. they need to be connected to, to support machines. and every time there is an order to have a treat patients it's, it's risking their lives. oh, but again, what is really important is that to that we need to get to the point that we have the access, the people who are in drugs can believe guys that there's more than 12000 people who need to be eval, create medical need not only injure people, but also people with the, with the other diseases of the products they gave me for interrupting you. everything you say we, we take to heart, but i do want to know what about the specific patients and stuff at this particular

hospital. what do you know has happened to them? well, we don't know. we have not being there at our request to go to come all as long as i said in most of the cases, denied we are, we will try to go tomorrow to indonesia, to where these people have to see what happened to that and see if we can move that up to, i'll see if a hospital gets in the gaza city where we have some other people. but again, we need access to know to have more information. we need to be there. we need to get to people. we need to make sure to be for who made a critically needed interventions to receive the wherever it's possible. so you're largely operating in the dark here. do you have any information about the director of the hospital? whole some of those stuff here to we love the contact with you. we don't know. we are deeply worried about uh uh, seeing data, data and other medical stuff that had been detained

a true iolta last last of 15 months or so. we have been coming to come on the, on a regular basis when we have been given permission to do so. uh, but again, uh uh, we can only do what we are allowed to do. and unfortunately, what we see is that right now, those people who are still in north of guys uh uh, unfortunately we must have access to that house services. and that is to rick just sarah bitch spokesperson for the world health organization. who has criticized these raids on the hospitals there as a death sentence for the tap palestinian people. we thank you very much. thank it. let's look at some more stories making headlines. fighting is being reported along the border between afghanistan and pakistan. pakistani security sources say one soldier was killed and 7 others wounded in the exchanges of fire. the classes
