Sun Apr 13 14:06:49 UTC 2025: ## British Foreign Minister Condemns Israeli Hospital Strike in Gaza

**London, April 13, 2025** – British Foreign Secretary David Lammy strongly condemned Israel’s attack on Al-Ahli Hospital in Gaza City early Sunday, April 13th, following reports of an Israeli missile strike that forced the evacuation of patients. The attack resulted in at least one death, a young girl, who perished during the evacuation due to the inability of medical staff to provide necessary care.

Mr. Lammy, in a social media post, stated that Israel’s repeated attacks on medical facilities, including the repeated targeting of Al-Ahli Hospital, have severely compromised access to healthcare in Gaza. He called for an immediate end to these “deplorable attacks,” advocating for diplomacy as the path to lasting peace.

Israel claims the hospital housed a Hamas command center used to plan attacks against Israeli civilians and soldiers. They maintain that warnings were issued and precise munitions used to mitigate harm, although no evidence has been presented to support these claims. The incident follows a broader escalation of the conflict in the region.
