Hi,
As the IDF ground maneuver in Gaza strip continues, the importance of Al-Shifa (or just Shifa) hospital in the war in Gaza is growing.
The hospital is the main and biggest one in Gaza strip and the city of Gaza, and it is now almost surrounded by IDF forces. The act, of course, is followed by an international pressure to release the hospital and all that is in it.
“This is a hospital, and there only doctors, injured people, kids, woman in it. Israel needs to leave the place aside.” This what is standing behind the international pressure on Israel.
But this is not correct. The hospital is not only treating injured people and take care of those who needs it support, but is an active center of Hamas terror.
This statement comes from Hamas terrorists themselves, captured during the black Sabbath and later on during the ground manuver in Gaza strip. The hospital has underground floors, which are now used by Hamas as headquarters. Yes, the main and biggest hospital in Gaza, which should take of the war injured on Gaza and must be nutral on is the headquarters of Hamas. It is not unreasonable that hostages and kidnapped from Israel are held in the Shifa hospital basement.
Only a week ago, ambulances with Hamas terrorists were leaving the hospital using the medical cars as a mask for war activities. The ambulances were attacked
Eariler attacks on the hospital (on external clinics) before injured could be evacuated, which is claimed by Palestinians to be done by IDF. Israel claims it was fired by Palestinian, just as happened in Al-Ahli Hospital explosion.
