Al Shifa Hospital

Al Shifa Hospital is a medical facility located in Gaza. Recent news highlights its resilience and reopening despite Israeli attacks on Gaza's health system. Dr. Ahmed Mokhallalati of Al Shifa Hospital notes its reopening. Furthermore, in April 2026, the hospital was the site of a reunion between 11 premature babies, evacuated to Egypt two years prior due to approaching Israeli forces, and their families in Gaza. These infants had been evacuated from the neonatal unit as Israeli forces approached. The hospital's targeting by Israel was reportedly conducted in a manner similar to military systems. These events underscore Al Shifa Hospital's significance as a vital healthcare provider in Gaza and its vulnerability in the context of ongoing conflict.
