“We are here in the city of Khan Younis, this is the European Hospital right behind me, the European Hospital in Khan Younis. You can see the very big hole in the ground, right in front of it. This is the entrance, the opening, for very deep commando control compound, Hamas’ commando control compound. Yet, this is another example of the cynical use of Hamas, using civilians as human shields, using civilian infrastructures, hospitals, again and again to find those infrastructures.“

10. Interior of tunnel showing mattresses, clothing
11. SOUNDBITE (English) Brigadier General Effie Defrin, Israeli army spokesperson:
“We didn’t target hospitals. It is a big achievement for us hitting in the outskirts of the hospital and around it, without damaging the hospital. Hamas is making a cynical use in the hospitals, and civilians, its own people as human shields. We found underneath the hospital, right under the emergency room, a compound of a few rooms, in one of them, we found, we killed, Mohammed Sinwar, approved now, he was the brother of Yahya SInwar, previous leader of this murderous and terror organisation, Hamas. He inherited him and now he was the leader and we killed him also. Together with him was Muhammad Shabaneh, was the head of the Rafah brigade, and several more terrorists, who died with him.“

16. SOUNDBITE (English) Brigadier General Effie Defrin, Israeli army spokesperson:
“We are distributing humanitarian support to the people and we opened three different distribution centres in the south part of Gaza, in the vicinity of Rafah and so on. Today, we opened a new one in the center part of Gaza. And our plan is to open more of these in the future, I can’t commit for dates, it depends on how we will progress in the operation.”
17. Various of dusty road seen from inside military vehicle
18. Destroyed structures seen from inside military vehicle
19. SOUNDBITE (English) Brigadier General Effie Defrin, Israeli army spokesperson:
“One of our methods is moving the population for their own safety. We are moving them from one place to another for their own safety. Hamas is killing them. Hamas is using them as human shields. Day after day, time after time. We are seeing in every other house, every other building is being boobytrapped, or we have a shaft of a tunnel inside it, or it is being used by Hamas to hit Israeli forces or to launch terror attacks on us. So this is what we are doing.“
