Several muslim countries condemn IDF's strike on Gaza hospital, call for lifting aid restrictions

The IDF and Shin Bet (Israel Security Agency) said the strike on Nasser Hospital Wednesday night targeted Hamas’s Khan Yunis Brigade commander Muhammad Abu Ismail.

Foreign ministers from 18 Muslim countries have strongly condemned an Israeli airstrike on a hospital in Gaza, calling the attack a violation of international law and urging Israel to lift restrictions on aid entering the territory. The strike, which occurred on Saturday, resulted in six deaths and numerous injuries, according to the Gaza Health Ministry.

The ministers expressed deep concern over continued Israeli restrictions on humanitarian aid and warned that the situation in Gaza, particularly during winter, is rapidly deteriorating. They urged Israel to adhere to the Sharm el-Sheikh Agreement, US President Donald Trump's comprehensive plan, and UN Security Council Resolution 2803, while demanding the unhindered delivery of essential aid, including shelter supplies and infrastructure rehabilitation equipment.

The ministers also criticized Israel for delays in allowing humanitarian supplies, stating that these delays worsen the humanitarian crisis.
