Gaza City, December 17 (RHC)-- At least three journalists have been killed in Israeli attacks over the weekend, including Al Jazeera cameraman Ahmed Al-Louh, as well as Mohammed Balousha, who last November was the first to report about the intensive care babies who died after Israeli soldiers forcibly evacuated the Al-Nasr Hospital. 

In reporting last month for Al Mashhad, Mohammed Balousha said: “This is the scene in the ICU of Al-Nasr Children’s Hospital.  It was under siege by the Israeli army. They didn’t allow these babies to evacuate and prevented anyone from rescuing them from the hospital.  Until now, these bodies are still there alongside other bodies of citizens laying in the streets, while no party is able to pick them up and bury them with dignity.”

Israel’s unlawful targeting of Gaza’s hospitals continues.  In the north, Kamal Adwan Hospital remains under siege and attack by Israeli forces.  Israel last week also ordered an area which includes the Patient’s Friends Benevolent Society Hospital to evacuate.  The hospital has the only neonatal intensive care unit in north Gaza to receive premature babies.  Israeli forces have also destroyed the Abu Shbak Health Center in Jabaliya.
