Hamas Fires on IDF from Gaza Hospital: International Law and Complexities
During Operation Gideon’s Chariots II, the IDF released footage illustrating Hamas terrorists firing upon forces from within Al-Shifa Hospital, citing this as further evidence of their use of civilian infrastructure for terror activities. The IDF stated it would continue to thwart terrorist activity while adhering to international law. Intense airstrikes in Gaza City resulted in reported deaths, with the Gaza Health Ministry warning of increased strain on hospitals, including the imminent shutdown of Al-Shifa due to a fuel shortage. The ground offensive to take control of the city continues with renewed vigor.
