Israeli Forces Threaten Gaza's Main Hospital, Turning It Into a Graveyard

The World Health Organization (WHO) has expressed concern that Gaza's largest hospital, Al-Shifa, is becoming a cemetery due to the ongoing conflict, with doctors reporting desperate conditions and fuel shortages. UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has called for a two-state solution and offered support to the Palestinian Authority to challenge Hamas. US President Joe Biden has called for the protection of Al-Shifa hospital, while the IDF has claimed that Hamas uses hospitals as an "instrument of war." Premature babies in Gaza are at risk due to the lack of electricity and fuel, and the WHO has called for an immediate ceasefire. The death toll in Gaza has risen to 11,240, according to the Hamas-run health ministry. Israel's defense minister has claimed that Hamas has lost control in Gaza, while fighting between Hezbollah and Israel at the Lebanon-Israel border has raised fears of another war.
