Two hospitals in northern Gaza have warned that they will be out of service due to shortages of fuel and medical supplies caused by Israel’s genocidal war on the besieged Palestinian territory.
The Indonesian and Kamal Adwan hospitals, both situated in Beit Lahia, announced on Monday that they will stop working as the occupying regime keeps up its brutal aggression and blockade on Gaza.
In an interview with Al Jazeera, director of Kamal Adwan Hospital, Hussam Abu Safia, warned that operations could stop within 48 hours because of a lack of fuel and critical medical items.
He also noted that fuel shortages in the intensive care unit could lead to the deaths of dozens of children.
Similarly, director of the Indonesian hospital, Marwan Sultan, said that the intensive care unit has reached its maximum capacity and is filled with critical cases, in addition to the presence of 10 patients who depend on ventilators.
“The operating rooms are running non-stop around the clock,” he added. “If Israel continues to block fuel deliveries, medical services could come to a complete halt, condemning these patients to death.”....more below

Nvidia would be barred from shipping advanced artificial intelligence chips to China under bipartisan legislation unveiled Thursday, Bloomberg reported.

The legislation comes as the White House weighs whether to allow Nvidia to export the....more below

Hundreds of retired Israeli police officers have urged the regime’s president, Isaac Herzog, to reject Benjamin Netanyahu’s request for a pardon in corruption cases.
On November 30, Netanyahu, who faces charges of bribery, fraud, and breach of public trust in three separate cases, submitted a formal pardon request to the office of Herzog, claiming the long-running corruption cases were tearing the regime apart.
In a letter to Herzog, about 400 former officers, including ex-commissioners and deputy commissioners, said Netanyahu’s request contains “not even a hint of admission of guilt,” making it unacceptable.
They warned that “such a step without [Netanyahu’s] confession and remorse is liable to ignite severe violence in Israeli society.”.....more below
