Israel's army, readiness for the evacuation of babies from the hospital in

Israel's military said it was ready to evacuate babies from the Gaza Strip's largest and main hospital on Sunday, where Palestinian officials said two newborns died and dozens more were at risk after running out of fuel. .

Gaza's border authorities said the Rafah crossing to Egypt would remain open to people with foreign passports as the humanitarian situation worsened.

Jordan, meanwhile, airdropped aid on Sunday to a field hospital in this enclave.

Israel Defense Forces (IDF) spokesman Daniel Hagari said late Saturday that there is a safe corridor through which civilians can be evacuated from Shifa hospital to southern Gaza.

He added that her troops will help remove the babies from the hospital on Sunday, and that he will keep in touch with hospital staff about it.

"We are talking directly and continuously with the hospital staff. Shifa's staff has requested that tomorrow we help in sending the babies to a safer hospital, we will provide the necessary assistance," Hagari said.

Gaza's health ministry, led by the radical group Hamas, designated a terrorist organization by the US and the EU, says there are still 1,500 patients in Shifa, along with a medical staff of 1,500, as well as about 15,000 to in 20,000 sheltered people.

Israel said rockets were still being fired from Gaza into southern Israel, where about 1,200 people were killed and more than 240 were kidnapped by Hamas last month, it said.

The Ministry of Gaza says that the number of people killed by Israeli retaliatory bombing has reached over 11,000, of which about 40 percent are children./ REL
