🇵🇸 Israel turns Shifa Medical Complex in Gaza into detention center

The Israeli forces stormed in large numbers the al-Shifa Medical Complex in Gaza City and turned it into military barracks and a detention center, where patients, displaced persons, and healthcare professionals are subjected to different forms of abuse, Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor said in a statement on Wednesday.

#EMHRM expressed fears of killings and executions as its team documented sporadic gunfire in the hospital since the early minutes of the raid, stressing that the al-Shifa Complex did not witness any gunfire other than from the Israeli forces.

The Geneva-based organisation highlighted that the Israeli army is the only party controlling the scene inside the #AlShifa Medical Complex, amid a total media blackout. No third party or international organisation was permitted to be present inside, which raises doubts about any Israeli narrative that would be released later.

🇵🇸 Ramy Abdu| رامي عبده (@RamAbdu): "12 hours of invasion and no signs of any of Hamas’s tunnels or headquarters. Unless Israel is creating the scene that might be released later." | nitter –

"You bomb them, shoot them, shell them, besiege them for weeks and block fuel and medical supplies, & then you invade the hospital and bring some medical supplies with big signs “medical supply”. What on earth is this logic Israelis have? The world doesn’t believe this #propaganda" | nitter –

"Israel is planning an invasion of the Shifa hospital. -No media coverage -No other party attendance -No UN or Red Cross presence Israel is the arbitrator, judge, and executioner. Israel can tell whatever lies it likes." | nitter –

Debunked: Israel's evidence of Hamas HQ in Shifa Hospital

A MEMO analysis of CNN and IDF footage from Israeli military raids at the Al-Shifa and Rantisi hospitals in Gaza appears to reveal attempts by the Israeli army to falsify evidence in an effort to assert the hospitals are being used as Hamas bases and justify attacks against them. Social media users were quick to debunk their evidence and raise question marks about their much touted 'intelligence' that Hamas has a command HQ under Gaza's largest hospital, Al-Shifa.

Speaking to Al Jazeera from Gaza’ largest hospital, Mohammed Abu Salmiya, says only him and few others, including staff and patients, were left at the hospital.

Here are his translated comments:

The hospital is completely deserted. Some of the remaining patients and victims are lying in the corridor.
The center of the hospital is surrounded by Israeli soldiers. They are in total control. Even we, the very few medical staff that remains, cannot move freely.Many of those in critical conditions including newborns and kidney patients will die imminently if they are not evacuated.Food at the hospitals is also running out.

Deep concern over the fate of dozens of medical staff and wounded in the Al-Shifa complex in Gaza

The Euro-Mediterranean Observatory for Human Rights expresses its deep concern about the fate of dozens of medical staff, wounded and sick in the largest #AlShifa medical complex in Gaza, in light of the ongoing military operation by the Israeli army inside the complex over the past several days .

The Euro-Med Monitor reports that there has been no contact or communication for 48 hours with anyone in the Al-Shifa compound, but it received a statement from one of the doctors before communication was cut off confirming that they had been subjected to violence. investigation and interrogation processes that included harassment, ill-treatment and their use as human shields.

The doctor said that medical staff are subjected to individual interrogations lasting several consecutive hours by Israeli forces, which deliberately cause widespread destruction and sabotage in all sections of the medical complex.

The Israeli army continues its raid on the Shifa compound for the sixth consecutive day, while 19 health workers and at least 259 wounded and sick continue to suffer serious complications and face a severe shortage of energy, water and medical supplies. .

Journalist Bisan Owda documented her journey from al-Shifa Hospital to southern Gaza as she tried to find a new place to shelter. Along her journey, she spokewith elderly people on the road, injured children and a doctor about diseases. Israel has ordered an evacuation to the south, but has continued bombing there. The UN says nearly all of Gaza is on the verge of starvation.

On top of starvation, heavy rains, cold temperatures and potential flooding are putting Gazans more at risk of infectious disease.

🇵🇸 Gaza doctors seized by Israel say they were used as 'human shields' | Middle East Eye –

For several days, Israeli aircraft kept bombing different buildings and departments of the hospital. Quadcopters were shooting directly at people, including patients and displaced persons. People were killed inside the hospital," Abu Saada, the head of the surgery department at al-Shifa Hospital, said.

"They besieged the hospital for five days before they stormed its departments. They kept us [in certain areas] and threatened us [with getting targeted].

"When they stormed the ground stores, they used us [doctors] as human shields to enter and search them. They found the technical maintenance employees there and interrogated them, before they detained them."

🇵🇸 Israel arrests, tortures Gaza doctors while world watches | Electronic Intifada

We were joined by Tarek Loubani, an emergency room physician based in Canada who has worked for years inside al-Shifa hospital in #GazaCity

He discussed the #abduction and #arrest of some of his colleagues by Israeli forces over the last few weeks, including Dr. Muhammad Abu Salmiya, the director of #AlShifa #hospital.

Tarek explained that the Israelis’ intention in taking and arresting these physicians, and subjecting them to physical and psychological torture, is meant to break the back of the #healthcare system even further in #Gaza.

“I don’t think any of them really expected, especially under the flag of the #ICRC [International Committee of the Red Cross], for them to be subject to that kind of arrest,” Tarek said.

#AbuSalmiya’s arrest, “is a classic example of how the Israeli system works: it took him in with no charges, for no reason, it’s keeping him for a very specific purpose.”
