International law, particularly the Geneva Conventions, strictly protects medical personnel and facilities, making intentional targeting a war crime, as they must always be respected and protected for their vital humanitarian role, though this protection can be lost if they are used for hostile acts against the enemy, requiring warnings and time for evacuation before any legitimate attack, say the ICRC and other sources.

In Gaza, the Israeli war belligerents have always sought ways to eliminate the protective status by viewing clinics and hospitals as being used by Hamas for hostile acts. However, this tactic has been in use since the Gaza War of 2008.
