Lebanese hospital sustained 'severe material damage' in Israeli strike
Lebanon's Rafik Hariri University Hospital will continue providing care despite the building sustaining "severe material damage" in an Israeli strike on Monday, according to Dr. Jihad Saadeh, the head of the hospital.
"Because of the targeting that has happened, we have sustained severe material damage to the hospital, including the destruction of solar panels, extensive destruction of all glass facades and damage to the hospital walls. Severe damage because it seems the shrapnel was very large," Saadeh said.
"We will not stop. Several entities even called me yesterday asking if I would like to evacuate the hospital. I told them, not at all. We will not evacuate. There is no hospital left but us. After the sinful targeting of the suburb’s hospitals, there is no one left except for us. So we will continue our work, God willing," Saadeh said.
