Israel's Attacks on Gaza Ambulance Convoys and Hospitals: A Devastating Toll

The Israeli army bombed a convoy of ambulances near Gaza's largest hospital, Al-Shifa, resulting in 15 deaths and at least 60 wounded civilians. The attack occurred as the ambulances were trying to transport casualties towards the Rafah border crossing but had to return due to blocked roads. Israel claims the hospital houses the underground command center of Hamas. The Gaza Strip has been under siege by Israel for nearly four weeks, with limited access to essential supplies. UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres expressed horror at the attack and called for an end to the violence. Another Israeli bombing targeted a UN school in the Jabalia refugee camp, leaving more casualties. US Secretary of State Antony Blinken urged Israel to protect civilians and allow humanitarian aid into Gaza.
