🇮🇱🇮🇱️. A joint statement from the IDF spokesperson and the Shin Bet spokesperson:
The IDF and the Shin Bet are eliminating senior terrorists and other terrorists from the Hamas organization who promoted terrorist activities from a hospital in southern Gaza.
During the night (Thursday), the IDF and the Shin Bet eliminated a senior terrorist and other terrorists from organization Hamas while they were hiding in the Nasr Hospital in Khan Yunis, in southern Gaza.
The terrorists were targeted in an air operation to eliminate the threat, as they promoted terrorist acts against Israeli citizens and IDF forces. This happened after Hamas settled in the hospital area and turned it into a command center for military and terrorist activity against the IDF forces and the State of Israel. This activity, which is a blatant violation of international law and a cynical exploitation of civilian infrastructure, included, among others:
- Storage of weapons in the hospital complex.
- Carrying out internal security and intelligence investigations and torture within the hospital complex.
- Command and control rooms operate from within the hospital complex.
- Using hospital facilities as observation posts and shelters for terrorists.
The IDF and the Shin Bet strongly condemn the cynical use of organization Hamas of civilian and medical infrastructure for military purposes, while risking the lives of patients, medical teams and civilians.
