GAZA CITY, Palestine (AA) - The Israeli army stormed Al-Shifa Hospital in Gaza City early Wednesday.

The head of the burns department at Al-Shifa Medical Complex, Dr. Ahmad Mikhallalati, in a press statement reported by Al Jazeera said Israeli tanks and bulldozers are now inside the complex.

Earlier Wednesday, the Israeli army said it had launched a military operation in “a certain part” of Al-Shifa Medical Complex.

Its announcement comes after the Ministry of Health in Gaza said the army officially informed the administration of the medical complex that it would storm it tonight.

The Palestinian group Hamas held Israel and US President Joe Biden fully responsible for the repercussions of the storming of Al-Shifa Medical Complex and the safety of the medical staff and displaced people.

“The White House and the Pentagon’s adoption of the false (Israeli) occupation narrative claiming that the resistance is using the Al-Shifa Medical Complex for military purposes was a green light for the occupation to commit more massacres against civilians to force them to migrate from the north to the south to complete the occupation plan aimed at displacing our people,” Hamas said in a statement.

Palestinian Health Minister Mai Al-Kaila also issued a statement carried by the official WAFA news agency holding the Israeli “occupation responsible for the lives of medical staff, patients and displaced people in the Al-Shifa complex.”

Al-Kaila warned of "catastrophic consequences for patients and medical staff if the occupation army carries out a storming of Al-Shifa Medical Complex."
