Israeli military enters Shifa Hospital to justify its strategy in Gaza
During the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, Israel took control of Gaza's largest hospital, Shifa, claiming that it concealed a secret Hamas military base. This hospital has become the center of the debate over Israel's conduct in the war. Journalist Patrick Kingsley was one of the few reporters allowed to visit Shifa Hospital with the Israeli military. While inside, he observed a shaft that the military claimed led to a Hamas underground complex. However, the evidence presented did not prove conclusively that the hospital was being used as a military command center. Despite the limited access to the hospital, the visit raised questions about the extent of destruction and civilian casualties in Gaza.
