GAZA, December, 12, 2024 (WAFA) – A Palestinian doctor was killed todayby the bullets of the Israeli occupation forces while he was going to his workplace in Al-Awda Hospital in the northern Gaza Strip.
Local sources reported that Dr. Saeed Joda, the only orthopedic specialist in the northern Gaza Strip, was killed after being shot in the head by an Israeli drone.
They pointed out that Joda was heading from Kamal Adwan Hospital to Al-Awda Hospital for a medical mission in Tel al-Zaatar in Jabalia in the northern Gaza Strip, noting that he travels to work between the two hospitals due to the shortage of medical staff.
It is worth noting that his son Majd,24, was killed a week ago while trying to rescue his cousins from under the rubble of the house that was bombed by the occupation warplanes in Jabalia camp.
The occupation continues its aggression and siege on the northern Gaza Strip for the 70th consecutive day, as about 4,000 citizens have been martyred and lost, and there is no water, food or fuel.
Since the beginning of the occupation's aggression on the Gaza Strip on October 7, 2023, 1,047 health sector cadres have been killed, while the occupation has detained more than 310 others, hundreds have been injured, and the occupation has destroyed about 130 ambulances. The deliberate targeting of medical infrastructure has also deprived citizens of the ability to access basic care services.
