On April 13, 2025, Israeli airstrikes hit Al-Ahli Arab Hospital in Gaza City, one of the last operational medical centers in the region. The bombing destroyed the emergency and reception departments, rendering the facility inoperative. A warning call prior to the strike allowed staff to evacuate patients, many of whom were critically ill, into the streets without medical support. Israel claimed the hospital was being used by Hamas, though provided no proof. The Episcopal Diocese of Jerusalem condemned the strike, calling it a violation of international law. The attack comes amid intense conflict and failed ceasefire talks in Cairo. (PC: Reuters)
