Gaza's largest functioning hospital facing disaster, medics warns | BBC News

Doctors have warned of an imminent disaster at Gaza's largest functioning hospital because of a critical shortage of fuel and a widening Israeli ground offensive in the southern city of Khan Younis. Nasser Medical Complex was forced to stop admitting patients on Thursday, when witnesses said Israeli troops and tanks advanced into a cemetery 200m away and fired towards nearby camps for displaced families. The forces reportedly withdrew on Friday after digging up several areas. Medical staff and dozens of patients in intensive care remain inside the hospital, where the fuel shortage threatens to shut down life‑saving services. The UN Human rights office has also said almost 800 people have been killed while trying to receive food aid in Gaza, since late May.
