South Gaza Hospitals Overrun As Battles Rage Across Khan Yunis
Al-Nasser Hospital, one of the last hospitals in the southern city of Khan Yunis, has been completely overrun with dead and wounded
Israeli troops continued to push into Gaza’s southern city of Khan Yunis on 5 December, facing fierce resistance from Hamas’ Qassam Brigades and other groups.
The battles come two days after the Israeli army officially announced its expansion of ground operations into southern Gaza.
"We're moving ahead with the second stage now. A second stage that is going to be difficult militarily," Israeli government spokesman Eylon Levy said on Tuesday.
He added that Tel Aviv is open to “constructive feedback” on reducing the threat to civilians as long as the feedback falls in line with the stated goal of destroying Hamas.
A White House official claimed on 4 December that the Israeli army is “making an effort” to minimize civilian casualties as it attempts to advance deeper into south Gaza. However, hundreds have been killed in the last 48 hours, and hospitals in the south are completely overrun with dead and wounded.
Khan Yunis’ Al-Nasser hospital – one of the last few operating in the southern city – is on the brink of collapse, with “almost every inch of floor space” taken up by injured Gazans, Reuters reported.
Gaza health ministry spokesman Ashraf al-Qidra said 43 corpses arrived at Al-Nasser Hospital on Tuesday morning.
"Hospitals in the southern Gaza Strip are totally collapsing; they cannot deal with the quantity and quality of injuries that arrive at the hospitals," he added.
Upon resuming the assault after the seven-day truce, Israel published a map of so-called ‘safe zones’ for Gazans to flee to, ignoring the fact that the vast majority of Palestinians in Gaza do not have electricity or internet to access the map. Many Gazans also reported airstrikes on some of the zones designated by Israel.
“The so-called safe zones … are not scientific, they are not rational, they are not possible, and I think the authorities are aware of this,” a UNICEF spokesman told Al-Jazeera on 5 December
