The statement, which was endorsed by doctors working within the healthcare system, claim that the Israeli military's bombing of Al Shifa Hospital was a"legitimate right." Thirteen Palestinians were killed and 26 others injured on Friday in an Israeli bombing that targeted ambulances in front of Al Shifa, according to the Health Ministry in Gaza.“We had notified the International Committee of the Red Cross, the Arab Republic of Egypt, and the entire world through communication channels of the movement of ambulances carrying the injured to Egypt, but the occupation committed the crime with utmost brazenness,” the ministry added.
