IDF Spokesperson Refutes Allegations of Manipulating Hamas Munitions at Al Shifa
The IDF spokesperson, Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari, has denied claims made by CNN and BBC that the Israeli army "rearranged" Hamas munitions at Al Shifa Hospital prior to visits from international news teams. Hagari stated that security measures were necessary to ensure the safety of the media, including relocating explosives and removing mines and charges. The IDF communicated that the discrepancy in the timing of a photo was due to additional weapons being found during the day. The IDF's discoveries at Al Shifa Hospital, including a functioning headquarters and military equipment, support their claim that Hamas was using medical centers for military operations.
