Palestinian media reports that IDF troops have raided the former site of the Jordanian field hospital in Gaza City’s Tel al-Hawa neighborhood, and have begun “digging operations” in the area.

The IDF has not yet commented.

Yesterday, the Jordanian military announced that it had transferred its field hospital from Tel al-Hawa to southern Gaza’s Khan Younis, as the IDF has pushed deeper into Gaza City amid its offensive against Hamas.

The IDF last month called on medical authorities and international groups operating in northern Gaza to prepare to move to an Israeli-designated humanitarian zone in the Strip’s south, ahead of the Gaza City offensive.
