More Evidence of Hamas Using Gaza Hospitals for Launching Rockets, Hiding Tunnels and Terrorists
The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) declassified intelligence on Sunday showing how terrorist group Hamas was hiding behind civilians and using hospitals for its terrorist offensive against the Israeli military operating in Gaza.
While the Israeli military was undertaking every possible measure to minimize harm to civilians in Gaza, Hamas was using hospitals as bases for terrorist operations and as launch pads for firing rockets at Israeli ground troops, IDF Spokesman Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari disclosed during a social media briefing on Sunday afternoon.
Hamas was not merely using hospitals for its terrorist activities, but had built them strategically to cover up its command posts and tunnel infrasture, the imagery released by the IDF showed.
The Times of Israel reported:
In a briefing to international media outlets, IDF Spokesman Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari reveals new intelligence information and evidence showing Hamas’s use of medical facilities in the Gaza Strip for terror purposes.
Hagari presents a video showing an underground entrance from Sheikh Hamad Hospital, which he says connects to Hamas tunnel networks.
Another video shows Hamas gunmen opening fire at Israeli forces from the hospital.
“If it weren’t enough that we exposed a tunnel under the hospital, the terrorists also shot at our soldiers from within the hospital,” Hagari says.
He says the IDF has intelligence of a tunnel network under the so-called Indonesian Hospital, as well as aerial imagery showing rocket launchers a few dozen meters from the complex.
“Hamas systematically built the Indonesian Hospital to disguise its underground terror infrastructure,” Hagari says.
He also presents recordings of calls between Hamas officials describing their use of fuel reserves that belong to the Indonesian Hospital. (…)
“Our war is with Hamas, not the civilians in Gaza. We will not accept Hamas’s cynical use of hospitals, to hide their terror infrastructure. Hamas’s exploitation of hospitals must come to an end,” Hagari says.
