Jerusalem, November 11 (RHC)-- Israeli forces have once again raided the al-Makassed hospital in East Jerusalem, allegedly searching for 'stone-throwers.' According to reports, scores of Israeli police officers, uniformed troops, and undercover soldiers stormed the hospital claiming that they were looking for a child injured by Israeli gunfire after allegedly throwing stones at the regime forces.

Eyewitnesses say that the hospital was completely surrounded before the raid and all roads leading to it were blocked. After storming the hospital, the Israelis forcefully gained access to the medical institution's admission records searching for the child.

A legal expert, Salah Mousa, told reporters in East Jerusalem that such raids violate international agreements and human rights conventions such as the Fourth Geneva Convention and UN Security Council resolutions.

The latest attack on the civilian hospital was not the Tel Aviv regime's first. Over the last month, multiple such raids have been carried out on the hospital for various reasons.
