At about 7:30 pm on Saturday, October 14, 2023, the Cancer Diagnostic Center Treatment at Al-Ahli Hospital in Gaza City was allegedly struck by Israeli airstrikes, resulting in injuries to four hospital staff workers. The injured staff members were receiving medical treatment for their wounds at the time of reporting.
Don Binder, Canon of St. George’s Cathedral, released a statement that “At about 7:30 pm local time today, Ahli Hospital’s Diagnostic Cancer Treatment Center in Gaza was hit by Israeli rocket fire. The strike severely damaged the two upper floors, including the Ultrasound and Mammography wards.” Images provided by Don Binder show damage to the walls and the equipment in the hospital.
The Mariam Foundation also released a statement that “Our partners, the National Arab Hospital in Gaza, were hit by two missiles and the hospital was ordered to be evacuated. Al-Ahli Hospital is our primary partner in supporting cancer patients in Gaza, and it has a branch and office of the Maryam Foundation, which is responsible for the Foundation’s activity in Gaza. Evacuating the hospital means evacuating staff and patients, including cancer patients who desperately need life-saving treatments.”
Where sources identified the belligerent, all sources attributed the strikes to Israeli forces.
