Commenting on the Israeli army beginning a military operation inside Al-Shifa Hospital in Gaza City, the White House announced on Tuesday night that “hospitals and patients must be protected.”
A spokesman for the US National Security Council said in a brief statement, “We will not comment in detail on the ongoing Israeli military operation.”
He added, “As we said before, we do not support bombing a hospital from the air, and we do not want to see an exchange of fire take place inside a hospital in which innocent people, helpless people, and patients searching for the health care they deserve will find themselves caught in the crossfire. Hospitals and patients must be protected.” “.
The statement came after a telephone conversation between US President Joe Biden and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, in which the two men discussed efforts to free hostages held by Hamas, according to the White House.
