    I sure hope it’s safe wherever the patients and medical staff are being evacuated…

    Israeli troops found weapons and “terror infrastructure” during an ongoing raid within Al-Shifa Hospital in the Gaza Strip, a senior military official said on Wednesday.

    He did not spell out what had been found or provide any visual evidence, but said this would be presented later.

    Yeah. So we’re going to have to take the IDF’s word for it on the weapons part.

      Probably to hospitals in the southern Gaza strip. Not as safe as evacuating them to Ashkelon, but it’s highly doubtful Israel will allow any Gazans to seek medical care inside Israel for a few years at least.

      I haven’t seen any image or video evidence of weapons yet. That will likely show up in a few days. The talking heads sometimes let things slip past the censors, and they’ve been hinting at something big. Not hostages big, but extremely clear evidence. They are saying that they’ve located tunnel entrances, including several that Hamas attempted to seal up and hide in the last few days.

        This evidence isn’t very definitive and it can very well be planted there by IDF realising their fuck-up. Sorry but with all these bombastic statements from them, they provided very little credible evidence to justify the occupation of the hospital.

        Not to mention that their incubators move is pure PR stunt, knowing perfectly well that the hospital does have incubators but they don’t have electricity to run them on.
