" These attacks cannot become commonplace, they must stop, " He Said .

Separately, the Hamas-run health ministry said More Than 30 People from the same family had been killed elsewhere in Jabalia, in what it also said was an Israeli strike.

The IDF denied ordering the evacuation of al-Shifa and said it had agreed to a request from The Hospital 's director for those wanting to leave to evacuate through a " secure route".
