Al Jazeera's correspondent reported that the Israeli army continues its storming and siege of the Shifa Medical Complex in Gaza for the fifth day in a row.

The reporter added that the occupation army is constantly bombing the surroundings of the complex and that columns of smoke are rising from the complex and the homes surrounding it.

The reporter revealed that the families of the sick and wounded at Al-Shifa Medical Complex launched appeals to transfer them to other hospitals after leaving them without treatment or care for several days.

The government media office in Gaza had announced that the Israeli occupation army had deliberately killed 13 patients at the Shifa Complex, depriving them of medicine, electricity, and oxygen since it occupied the complex for the fourth day in a row.

He added that 4 of the patients who were on ventilators in intensive care rooms died after the occupation army cut off their electricity.

The Government Media Office condemned the crimes committed by the Israeli occupation army against the sick, the wounded, medical personnel, and the displaced.

He held the American administration, the international community, and the Israeli occupation fully responsible for these ongoing crimes against the sick, wounded, and medical teams.
