like the other comment said, it's a fluid situation. It was bombed/shelled earlier, but was still operational. I think it's now been physically raided by troops, and majority of the staff has been forcibly expelled or arrested. per a news program I saw an hour ago, the hospital was turning away casualties from the overnight bombing that killed 100 people in one building, since they have no capacity to do anything at this point. I suspect the couple of staff still left are doing what they can for any patients they still have, though I know the kids that were on ventilators died when they shelled the hospital earlier, so who even knows. I unwisely watched this news program over lunch, and they had images of the children loaded into body bags 2-3 per bag, open. Those photos should be plastered all over billboards across America: this is where the bombs go.
I thought I saw a story before that their last operational hospital was already bombed? It's getting hard for me to keep track.
It's constantly changing. Al-Shifa was almost completely destroyed, then rebuilt by volunteers and then raided again.
Thanks, that makes sense.
