An Israeli airstrike has killed one of Gaza’s most senior doctors in a “catastrophic” loss to the already decimated healthcare system. A number of family members were reported to have been killed alongside him.

Dr Marwan al-Sultan, a renowned and highly experienced cardiologist and director of the Indonesian hospital in the #Gaza Strip, is the 70th #healthcare worker to be killed by Israeli attacks in the last 50 days, according to Healthcare Workers Watch (HWW), a Palestinian medical organisation.

“This is part of a much longer and systematic atrocious targeting of healthcare workers sanctioned by impunity. This is a tragic loss of life, but also an obliteration of their decades of lifesaving medical expertise and care at a time when the situation facing Palestinian civilians is unfathomably catastrophic,” Alser added.

“He was a prominent scholar and one of the two remaining cardiologists left in Gaza. Thousands of heart patients will suffer as a result of his killing. His only fault was that he was a doctor. We have no option but to be steadfast, but the sense of loss is devastating.”

Israeli special forces have abducted Dr Marwan al-Hams, director of Abu Youssef al-Najjar Hospital and spokesperson for the Palestinian health ministry in Gaza, outside the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) field hospital in the southern part of the enclave.

The Palestinian health ministry said on Monday that Hams, who also oversees field hospitals in the #Gaza Strip, was on his way to visit the #ICRC facility in northern Rafah when undercover Israeli soldiers opened fire, killing one person and wounding another civilian, before capturing him.

The person killed was a local journalist who had been conducting an interview with al-Hams at the time of the attack.

"This cowardly act targeted one of the most prominent humanitarian and medical voices who has conveyed to the world the pain of starving children, the suffering of wounded patients deprived of medication, and the cries of mothers at hospital gates," the ministry said in a statement.

Israel bombed the main #hospital in southern Gaza on Monday and then struck the same spot again as rescuers and #journalists rushed to help the wounded, killing at least 20 people including five journalists.

The first strike hit the top floor of a building at the Nasser hospital, killing the Reuters journalist Hussam al-Masri and others. Journalists and rescuers then rushed to the scene to help the wounded, when a second bomb struck the same spot, 15 minutes later.

#Israel has regularly struck #hospitals, claiming without evidence that Hamas uses them for military purposes. It also regularly kills journalists in #Gaza, on some occasions with the justification that the journalists were associated with #Hamas – claims that journalistic bodies have described as baseless.

An Israeli soldier posted an Instagram story showing the Spike system and a video of the strike, captioned: “die motherfucker, die.” The post reinforces that the strike was intentional, not accidental.

News is now circulating about heavy airstrikes on Rafah… what hatred is this? What limitless madness? Everything has been destroyed, everything we left behind has turned to ashes, and yet the bombing does not stop.
And even though the city is empty of residents and everything there has been destroyed, I honestly wonder… what is left for them to destroy after all this?! What greater hatred could there be?!
