A British charity has accused Israel of “accelerating the systemic dismantling” of Gaza’s healthcare system after its clinic in Deir Al Balah was forced to close as Israel widens its military offensive. Medical Aid for Palestinians’ staff were given only six hours to evacuate by the Israelis, according to Liz Allcock, the charity’s head of humanitarian protection. Shelling is now taking place around the premises. “Nine clinics, five shelters, and a vital community kitchen have been forced to shut down,” the group said.
