Army claims operation was a success but WHO says patients were killed and over 100 remain in compound
Israeli forces announced on Monday their withdrawal from al-Shifa hospital in Gaza after a two-week raid, with Palestinians describing the extensive destruction left behind by the army and bodies scattered in the dirt of the complex.
According to the Israel Defense Forces, the facility – Gaza City’s main hospital before the war – was used to harbour Hamas fighters. The army described the operation as one of the most successful of the nearly six-month conflict and cited the killing of scores of militants including senior operatives.
