The Muslim World League (MWL) strongly condemned on Saturday Israeli forces for burning a hospital in the Gaza Strip and forcing the evacuation of patients and medical staff.

In a statement, MWL Secretary General and Chairman of the Organization of Muslim Scholars Sheikh Dr. Mohammed Al-Issa slammed the “horrific crimes that the Israeli forces continue to commit against civilians and civilian facilities in the Gaza Strip without deterrence, in flagrant violation of all international and humanitarian laws and norms.”

Israeli soldiers stormed and burned a hospital in isolated northern Gaza after forcibly removing staff and patients on Friday, Health Ministry officials said. The Israeli military said the hospital was being used by Hamas fighters as a base, although it did not provide evidence.

Gaza's Health Ministry said Israeli troops set fires in several parts of Kamal Adwan Hospital, including the lab and surgery department. Israel's military said there was only a small fire in an empty hospital building, and was unaware of any Israeli gunfire causing the blaze.
