TL;DR Summary

Israeli forces have stormed the Kamal Adwan hospital in northern Gaza, one of the last functional healthcare facilities in the area, as disease spreads among millions of displaced Palestinians. The World Health Organization reports that infectious diseases are spreading throughout Gaza due to the lack of food and water. The hospital has been under siege for several days, with reports of it being hit and Palestinian Red Crescent Workers being detained. The situation on the ground is dire, with extreme shortages of water, food, and power, and concerns of disease outbreaks. The WHO Director-General expressed concern about the raid and the acute shortages faced by the hospital. Gaza's Ministry of Health reports over 18,000 fatalities and the detention of the hospital director.
