Israel-Gaza live updates: IDF says it's discovered one of Hamas' biggest tunnels under Gaza

Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières said one of its surgeons inside the Al-Awda hospital was injured by a shot fired from outside the facility.

"Reports coming out of Al-Awda hospital are harrowing and we are gravely worried for [the] safety of patients and staff inside. Let us be clear: Al Awda is a functioning hospital with medical staff and many patients in vulnerable condition. Targeting medical workers as they care for their patients is utterly reprehensible, utterly inhumane," Renzo Fricke, MSF's head of mission, said in a statement.

The international humanitarian group said the attacks on the hospital have killed five staff so far including two of their members.

Israeli forces are targeting and operating near two hospitals in northern Gaza, the Kamal Adwan Hospital and the Al-Awda Hospital, according to the Palestinian Health Ministry.

The director of Al-Awda Hospital, Ahmed Muhanna, said Israeli tanks were surrounding the hospital.

Doctors Without Borders said one of its surgeons was injured inside Al-Awda Hospital by a shot fired from outside the facility.

“Reports coming out of Al-Awda hospital are harrowing and we are gravely worried for safety of patients and staff inside,” Doctors Without Borders said.

The Israel Defense Forces said it could not comment on troops' locations.

Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant said Monday that Israel "will take any measures in order to destroy Hamas, but we have no intention to stay permanently in the Gaza Strip."

"We only take care of our security and the security of our citizens alongside the border with Gaza and elsewhere," Gallant said.

Gallant said "a new civil body will be established to try and look after the welfare of the residents."

"The key condition is that this body will not act with hostility towards the state of Israel," Gallant said. "All the rest, in my opinion, can be discussed. It certainly will not be Hamas, and also will not be Israel. We will maintain our freedom to act, to operate militarily against any threat."

Speaking directly to Hamas, Gallant said, "To the terrorists, to their commanders and to the battalion commanders: surrender. If you surrender, you can save your lives. If not, your fate is sealed."

Dr. Renana Eitan, a psychiatrist who treated people held by Hamas, said some of the now-released hostages experienced "cruelty that I haven't seen before."

"I've been a psychiatrist for over 20 years," she said. "We are [a] national center for sexual trauma and for PTSD for the refugees from Africa, so I thought I saw all the worst PTSD patients."

Some hostages were held "in inhumane sanitary conditions" and "subject to severe physical, sexual and mental abuse," Eitan said.

"I have never seen anything like that before," Eitan said.

"One of the patients, she was kept in total darkness for four days. This is inhumane. She became psychotic. She had hallucinations," Eitan said. "I've never seen such things in my life."

According to the Israel Defense Forces, 137 people are still being held hostage by Hamas.
