The army denies having ordered the evacuation, only claiming to have “responded to a request” from the director of Al-Shifa hospital.

After these departures, the huge hospital complex still housed on Saturday, according to the WHO, 25 caregivers and 291 patients, including 22 patients on dialysis and two in intensive care. Many injured people suffer from serious infections due to the lack of antibiotics and poor hygiene conditions, the organization reported at the end of its mission. The thirty-one premature babies who were still in the Al-Shifa hospital in Gaza after its evacuation on Saturday were taken from the establishment, Mohamed Zaqout, general director of hospitals in the Gaza Strip, reported to AFP on Sunday.
