AMMAN — The National Centre for Human Rights (NCHR) has vehemently condemned the ruthless aggression carried out by the Israeli occupying authorities against the Baptist Hospital in the Gaza Strip on Tuesday night. 

“This horrific incident constitutes a blatant violation of international humanitarian law and international human rights law, particularly Articles (3, 18, 20) of the Fourth Geneva Convention,” the NCHR said in a statement. 

The centre implored the international community to unite in opposition to these systematic transgressions committed by the Israeli occupying authorities. 

Additionally, the centre cautioned against the escalating situation in the Gaza Strip and the State of Palestine, underscoring its far-reaching global implications.
