The end of the article jumped out at me:
The Palestinian health ministry said 40 patients died on Tuesday, after five days without the fuel needed to power generators that fed dialysis machines and other vital medical equipment. The hospital had also run out of clean water, and doctors said they were subsisting on dates to survive as food supplies dwindled to nothing.
Corpses were piled in front of the hospital, with staff too terrified to move between buildings. The UN’s office for humanitarian affairs said staff at al-Shifa, for decades the linchpin of Gaza’s medical system, had begun preparations for a mass grave to entomb 180 bodies in front of the facility, as there was no way for them to leave in order to bury the dead.
Guns and grenades in the same room as an MRI machine. Because we all know the very best place to store metal items that can go boom is in a room with a gigantic mega magnet.
Well in fairness, with no power the magnet probably isn’t all that strong.
Depending on the type of magnet in the MRI, it could easily be plenty strong. Some use big permanent magnets.
Sure maybe, but they brought the munitions in, so its resting state wasn’t an issue.
