The International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) has now weighed in on the hospital situation in northern Gaza.

In a statement, it warned that hospitals in the Palestinian enclave have “reached a point of no return”, risking the lives of thousands of people.

The ICRC said its staff attempting to deliver medical supplies had witnessed “horrendous” scenes, and described the destruction as “unbearable”.

It also highlighted attacks on children’s hospitals, including Al-Rantisi, which we’ve been reporting on today, saying they had “not been spared from violence.”

The humanitarian organisation, which is the guardian of the Geneva Conventions, repeated its demand that hospitals and healthcare workers, under international law, must be protected.

    I’ll believe that when me shit turns purple and tastes of rainbow sherbet.

    Somehow you have proof of something the entire world would live to have but wait… We’ll all have to trust you the random Internet douchebag with too much confidence and a shitty attitude.

    We call that an anecdote, you need supporting evidence which we all know you do not have.

      Your entire world is you and the people who agree with you. People that don’t are not part of your world. Open source intelligence is a thing.
