Israeli soldiers were said to have worn scrubs for doctors and clothes for women to get into the West Bank city.
In a secret mission, these people went in dressed as others and killed three Palestinian militants. They are said to have gone into a room on the third floor and used guns to shoot all three men in the head. It is said that the act itself took less than 10 minutes to carry out.
As they watched the attack happen, a staff member told what had happened. About 12 members of the special forces were spread out across the hospital, watching to make sure no one got in the way. Only a few of the special forces went into the room to shoot the men, they said.
A spokesperson for the hospital said that there was no open fire or shooting inside the hospital. Tawfiq al-Shobaki said, “This sets a standard.” There has never been a murder in a hospital. Arrests and fights happened, but no one was killed.
A lot of people think this shouldn’t happen in hospitals because it’s against the law around the world. People outside of hospitals are worried because they are automatically targets. Israel says that these actions are okay because they found tubes under the ground that lead into Gaza hospitals and they think that Hamas uses these tunnels.
This being said, there have already been many tasks that people have tried to attack. The IDF may see men, high-level officials, soldiers, and other people they think are targets as targets at these hospitals in the Gaza Strip. This reason has now made it okay for people to be violent in hospitals.
Israel says that Mohammad Jalamana, Basel Ghazawi, and Mohammad Ghazawi were the men who died. Israeli forces have been going after the Jenin Battalion, which is made up of three guys who were killed.
Authorities said that these men were planning an attack like the one that happened on October 7. Over 1,100 people were killed in the attack on October 7. It also started the war in Gaza, which has killed over 26,000 people. Also, more than 2 million people have been forced to leave Gaza because of it.
