Ramallah - The Palestinian Ministry of Health warned of the repercussions of the occupation's siege of the hospitals of Jenin, Tulkarm, and Tubas and its threats to storm them. The ministry added that dozens of patients are currently being treated in Jenin's governmental, private and civil hospitals, and that any storming of them is a direct threat to their lives and the lives of medical staff. The Ministry of Health directed all medical teams in Jenin Governorate to head to the nearest health center to support their fellow doctors in dealing with the emergency situation in the governorate, especially after the occupation bulldozed the roads surrounding the hospitals in the city and raised the level of readiness to serve our people. The Ministry called on the international community and the Red Cross to intervene to protect medical institutions, at a time when the occupation forces are obstructing the arrival of ambulances to them, which puts the lives of patients and the injured at risk, which constitute s a flagrant violation of human rights, international humanitarian law and international human rights law. The occupation forces blocked the roads to Ibn Sina Hospital with dirt barriers, and surrounded the Martyr Khalil Suleiman Hospital and the headquarters of the Red Crescent and Friends of the Patients societies.
