Gaza Hospital Hit by Missile, 500 People

Killed fortunately, CNBC Indonesia

Hundreds of people were reported killed in a massive

explosion at a busy hospital in Gaza City. The incident
was the largest death toll in the blockaded region in five
wars between Hamas and Israel since the militants took
over the territory in 2007.
Gaza's Health Ministry, which is run by Hamas, said at
least 500 people were killed on Tuesday (17/10/2023)
evening in Israeli air strikes on al-Ahli al-Arabi, also
known as the Baptist hospital. A spokesman for
Gaza's civil defense put the death toll at around 300
people.
The bloodshed at the hospital came 11 days after a new
war between Israel and Palestinian militant groups
continued to escalate ahead of Joe Biden's visit to the
region, complicating US efforts to stop the widening
conflict in the Middle East.
The Israeli military reportedly said a preliminary
investigation showed that the explosion was caused by a
failed Hamas rocket launch, before saying that it was
the result of a Palestinian Islamic Jihad rocket attack.
Islamic Jihad denies Israel's accusations, and the scale of
the explosion appears to be beyond the militant group's
capabilities.
Footage broadcast from the ground by Al Jazeera showed
huge flames engulfing the multi-storey building, with
bodies, bloodstains and debris strewn everywhere.
The hospital belonging to the Anglican church was
reportedly attacked without prior warning. Previously,
the hospital was hit by rockets on Saturday in an attack
that injured four medical staff.
The hospital was attacked at around 19.30 local time.
The place is full of people injured in Israeli attacks, as
well as civilians seeking shelter, believing that hospitals
are safer than their homes after relentless Israeli attacks
that have killed more than 3,000 people.
"We were carrying out surgery in the hospital, there was
a strong explosion, and the ceiling of the operating room
collapsed. This is death," said doctor Ghassan Abu Sittah,
quoted by The Guardian.

"Nothing can justify a shocking attack on a hospital and

the many patients and health workers and people
seeking refuge there. Hospitals were not the targets.
This bloodshed must stop. Enough is enough."

More than 300 victims were taken by ambulance and

private cars to Gaza City's main hospital, al-Shifa, which
had already been sent to treat victims injured in other
attacks. The injured people on the floor were covered in
blood, screaming in pain

"We fit five beds into one small room. We need

equipment, we need medicine, we need beds, we
need anesthesia, we need everything," al-Shifa's
director,
Mohammed Abu Selmia, told the Associated Press. “I
think the medical sector in Gaza will collapse in a
few hours.”

Doctor Ziad Shehadah told Al Jazeera what

happened was very bad because the people were all
civilians.

“People leave their homes thinking they are more

dangerous and they move to our schools and hospitals to
be safe. And within a minute, they were all scattered in
the hospital," he said.

World Reaction
Aid agencies and governments around the world
quickly condemned the bombings as war crimes.

The Director General of the World Health Organization

(WHO), Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, demanded
immediate protection of civilians and health services
in the Palestinian territories.
“WHO strongly condemns the attack on Al Ahli Arab
Hospital,” he tweeted. "Initial reports indicate hundreds
of deaths and injuries. We guarantee immediate
protection of civilians and health services."

Canon Richard Sewell, dean of Anglican-run St George's

College in Jerusalem, said: "Disaster: our hospital, the
Arab Specialist hospital, took a direct hit from an Israeli
missile. Initial reports say hundreds of women and
children were killed.

CONCLUSION
Many houses and other buildings collapsed,
causing considerable losses to public health,
and children there experienced profound trauma
in their minds. and reinforcements have not
been able to enter there because they were
blocked by Israeli forces. and there is a division
between countries because there are some
countries that defend Israel and there are also
countries that defend Palestine.
