Iran Condemns Israeli Raid on Gaza’s al-Shifa Hospital
TEHRAN (Tasnim) – The Foreign Ministry of Iran strongly condemned the Zionist regime’s brutal storming of al-Shifa Hospital in Gaza.
The Israeli regime's military forces on Monday stormed al-Shifa Hospital in Gaza City with tanks and heavy gunfire, resulting in deaths and injuries.
Gaza’s Ministry of Health said about 30,000 people, including displaced civilians, wounded patients and medical staff are trapped inside the complex.
In a statement on Monday, Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Nasser Kanaani lashed out at the Zionist regime for blatantly violating all international rules and regulations and trampling on humanitarian principles and law.
He said the Israeli regime’s dark record of occupation, terror, violence, and crimes during the past seven decades has been coupled with genocide in the Gaza Strip during the past six months.
Kanaani also reminded the international community of its responsibility for the painful conditions in the Gaza Strip, calling on the UN Security Council to fulfill its duty to prevent the continuation of Israeli crimes in Palestine.
At least 31,726 Palestinians have been killed and 73,792 injured in Israeli attacks on Gaza since October 7.
