Israeli forces raided Nasser Hospital, the main hospital in the city of Khan Younis in southern Gaza, on Thursday. The Israel Defense Forces said it was conducting an operation to recover the bodies of hostages, while the Gaza Health Ministry accused the IDF of storming the complex “after demolishing the southern wall,” and turning it into a military base.

    Before the hamas apologists chime in perhaps you might consider that the Israeli were not fighting a pitched battle for days to enter this hospital with ghosts.

    Hamas again seems to have militarised a hospital (a war crime) and attacking a militarised hospital is in fact not a war crime. Recovering their dead hostages is besides the point.

      hamas apologists

      This is what you look like when you accuse anyone who dares to contradict the Israeli government narrative of being terrorist sympathizers:

      Hamas again seems to have militarised a hospital

      According to who, the IDF? Any independent verification or are you just blindly taking the words of known habitual liars?

      Recovering their dead hostages is besides the point.

      If it’s besides the point, why is it the entirety of the IDF excuse this time?

        Are you OK?

        A released hostage told The Associated Press last month that she and over two dozen other captives had been held in Nasser Hospital. International law prohibits the targeting of medical facilities; they can lose those protections if they are used for military purposes, though operations against them still must be proportional to any threat.

          Hey man, I know it must seem unfair how everyone is bashing Israel all the time and accusing them of genocide. But maybe consider Israeli leadership is openly calling for genocide. Bibi Netanyahu literally held up this map with Palestine completely wiped off. Now don’t tell me they’re only doing all of this as a reaction to October 7th, because this photo was taken two weeks before. We all see the news. They’re leveling Gaza. Don’t gaslight

          Do you condemn Israel?
