Israeli occupation forces (IOF) have completely demolished the Noura Al-Kaabi Dialysis Hospital in northern Gaza, the only medical center providing life-saving kidney dialysis services in the region, the Palestinian Information Centre reported Sunday.
The hospital served dozens of patients from Beit Lahia, Beit Hanoun, Jabalia, and the village of Umm Al-Nasr. Repeated Israeli strikes had already damaged nearly all its dialysis machines, leaving only eight in working condition before the facility was razed to the ground by Israeli military excavators.
Eyewitnesses captured footage of Israeli bulldozers flattening the hospital, which stood as the last hope for kidney patients in the area. Its destruction marks a new chapter in the systematic targeting of Gaza’s healthcare infrastructure.
Al Jazeera shared a video of the demolition, describing the hospital as “the only specialised dialysis facility in Gaza” and the latest in a string of healthcare centers Israel has destroyed or rendered inoperable during its military campaign.
At the same time, Israeli forces bombarded residential buildings across Gaza City, worsening the humanitarian catastrophe that has unfolded since the war began.
Since October 7, 2023, Israel’s offensive—backed by the United States—has killed or injured over 178,000 Palestinians, the majority of them women and children, according to Palestinian sources.
Thousands are still missing beneath the rubble, while hundreds of thousands more face mass displacement, starvation, and collapsing medical care amid siege conditions.
