"Dr. Hussam Abu Safiyya, Director of Kamal Adwan Hospital, issued a critical statement today detailing the ongoing bombardment that began at 1 a.m. He described severe impacts on hospital operations as shelling damaged essential areas, including the surgical building and third floor, which houses medical supplies from the World Health Organization. The attack caused a fire that destroyed water tanks and compromised the dialysis unit, while four medical staff members suffered burns attempting to extinguish the flames. Dr. Abu Safiyya appeals for immediate assistance from health organizations and calls for specialized surgical teams, critical medical supplies, blood and plasma units, and at least one ambulance to transport the injured, noting that Kamal Adwan has no operational ambulances.
