The United Nations accuses Israel of attacking a medical evacuation convoy despite prior coordination. The incident occurred last Sunday while 24 patients were being evacuated from Al-Amal Hospital in the city of Khan Yunis.

The occupation forces disrupted a convoy led by the World Health Organization for several hours upon its departure from the hospital. Israel previously claimed that it was taking measures to reduce civilian casualties, and accused the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) of hiding among civilians in hospitals. At least 576,000 people in the Gaza Strip (representing a quarter of the population) are one step away from famine.
