Israeli state bombed a convoy of 30 ambulances from the Palestinian Red 
Crescent and the Gaza-based Health Ministry that was attempting to 
transport seriously injured people to the Rafah crossing.</p>                                                     
                                        
                                                                
                                            
                                                 
                                                
                                                 
<p>As soon as it began its journey, however, the convoy was attacked by 
Israeli planes in three places: on Al-Abbas and Al-Rashid streets, at 
the Ansar roundabout, and at the Al Shifa hospital entrance.</p>                                                  
                                        
                                                                
                                            
                                                 
                                                
                                                <p>Previously, this 
transfer of patients was reported to the International Red Cross, with 
which the Palestinian Red Crescent and authorities established 
coordination actions.</p>                                                 
                                        
                                                                
                                            
                                                 
                                                
                                                <p>Despite the above, Israeli planes bombed the main entrance to Al-Shifa hospital where an ambulance was parked.<br> </p> 
 
<p>This military action immediately produced some 60 victims, among whom
 were patients, their families, ambulance crews, and displaced people 
who had taken refuge in the hospital yards.</p>                                                   
                                        
                                                                
                                            
                                                 
                                                
                                                <p>“Photos and videos 
show dozens of bodies of dead and injured people lying on the ground, 
while citizens and ambulance crews were working to transport the wounded
 inside the hospital,” the WAFA news agency reported.</p>                                                       
                                        
                                                                
                                            
                                                 
                                                
                                                <p>“Israeli warplanes 
and artillery also targeted a convoy of ambulances carrying wounded 
people, after they set off from the complex towards the Rafah crossing 
in the southern Gaza Strip, with the aim of transporting them for 
treatment in Egyptian hospitals,” it added.</p>                                                 
                                        
                                                                
                                            
                                                 
                                                
                                                <p>“Gaza hospitals 
administration called on the International Red Cross to accompany the 
convoy, Coordination was made for the passage of the convoy without any 
targeting from the Israeli occupation forces," WAFA stated.</p>                                                      
                                        
                                                                
                                            
                                                 
                                                
                                                 
<p><em><strong>The text reads, "Al Jazeera reports that an Israeli 
projectile hit the entrance to Al Shifa hospital, in front of which a 
convoy of ambulances was located. It is the largest hospital in Gaza. 
Many casualties are reported."</strong></em></p>                                                 
                                        
                                                                
                                            
                                                 
                                                
                                                <p>"The convoy was 
targeted without any regard for international laws that emphasize the 
need to protect hospitals, medical staff, and ambulances even during 
wars," it recalled.</p>                                                      
                                        
                                                                
                                            
                                                 
                                                
                                                <p>On Friday, Israeli 
warplanes also bombed the vicinity of Al-Quds Hospital in the Tel 
Al-Hawa area, and the vicinity of the Indonesian Hospital in Beit Lahia 
north of the Strip.</p>

 Israel has been targeting Gaza's healthcare system, including 
hospitals, medical centers, medical staff, paramedics, and ambulances," 
the Palestinian Public Diplomacy recalled.</p>
