Hamas used hospital as a military base, says ambulance driver
The Telegraph: Hamas was heavily embedded inside a hospital in northern Gaza, using its offices and ambulances for their operations, according to an ambulance driver.
Speaking under interrogation by the Israel Defense Forces (IDF), the driver said Hamas military operatives were known to operate “at the gates of buildings [and] in the offices” of the Kamal Adwan hospital in Jabalia.
“They operate ambulances to transport their wounded military operatives and transport them for their missions. And this is instead of using ambulances for the benefit of civilians,” he said in a video released by the IDF.
The driver was arrested after Israeli special forces stormed the hospital over the weekend, during which 100 suspected Hamas fighters were captured.
Israel said it raided the hospital as part of its new offensive in northern Gaza in response to a “regrouping” of Hamas in and around Jabalia.
Gaza health officials have denied Israeli claims of any militant presence at the hospital.
