The Palestinian Red Crescent Society has accused the Israeli military of bombing near Al-Quds hospital in northern Gaza, causing damage and endangering civilians. The medical organization claims that the Israeli army deliberately launches rockets near the hospital in an attempt to force the evacuation of medical personnel, displaced individuals, and patients. This has resulted in significant damage to hospital departments and put residents and patients at risk of suffocation. In response, Israel has called on non-combatants in northern Gaza to move south as it intensifies operations against Hamas terrorists in the area. Israel has also accused Hamas of using Gaza hospitals as bases of operation and using civilians as human shields. The United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) has reported that thousands of people have broken into UN aid centers in the Gaza Strip, taking basic survival items. This is seen as a sign that civil order is starting to break down after weeks of war and a tight siege on Gaza. International humanitarian organizations are calling on the international community to intervene and prevent a humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza.
