The Palestinian Health Ministry condemned Thursday morning the attack carried out by the Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF) on Qalqilia hospital earlier today.

The attack occurred when IOF soldiers stormed at the early morning hours Qalqilia hospital amid heavy firing of teargas bombs, injuring many patients including children.

The IOF raid on Qalqilia hospital came as part of a series of systematic assaults on the Palestinian health sector in flagrant violation of international laws and norms, the ministry said in a statement.

The statement also called for urgent international intervention to stop Israeli violations.
