Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Nasser Kan'ani has censured Israel's brutal attack on the al-Shifa hospital in Gaza City and the regime's crimes against medical staff and patients, Press TV reported.
In a statement on Monday, Nasser Kan'ani said it is not the first time that the Israeli regime has blatantly violated all international rules and regulations as well as the most obvious human principles.
Heavily armed Israeli forces stormed the al-Shifa hospital early on Monday using tanks and drones, firing at people inside the complex.
Gaza’s Health Ministry says some 30,000 people, including displaced civilians, wounded patients and medical staff are trapped inside the hospital.
Kan'ani said Israel's power structure has been based on occupation, terror, violence and crimes over the past seven decades which has been coupled with genocide in the Gaza Strip during the past six months.
He criticized the international community for remaining silent vis-à-vis Israel's massacre of Palestinians in the Sabra and Shatila refugee camps in 1982 and its massacre in Qana, a village in southern Lebanon, in 1996.
Kan'ani once again reiterated the international community's responsibility regarding the tragic situation in Palestine, particularly in Gaza.
