Twenty-eight premature babies were evacuated into Egypt from Gaza on Monday. According to Egyptian media reports, premature babies evacuated from Gaza’s largest hospital, the West Fa Hospital, were safely sent into Egypt from the Rafah border checkpoint. Archyde.com pointed out that the newborns had been treated in a West French hospital and were first sent to a hospital in Rafah on the southern border of Hamas-ruled Gaza on Sunday so that their condition might be stabilized before being transferred to Egypt. WHO Secretary-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said 12 people had been sent to Cairo, but all the evacuated babies were fighting serious infections.

At the same time, the Gaza Ministry of Health accused the Israeli military of air strikes on Indonesian hospitals in northern Gaza, killing at least 12 people. A spokesman for Gaza’s health ministry said the dead included patients and dozens were injured, with regarding 700 people trapped in the besieged medical center. The Indonesian hospital is funded by Jakarta. The WHO expressed shock at the attack, noting that health workers and civilians should never be subjected to such horrors, especially in hospitals.

Israel said it was responding to enemy fire on troops from inside the hospital and that the IDF directly targeted specific sources of enemy fire but did not fire shells at the hospital.
