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.

    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?
