Doctors Without Borders Says Gunmen Are Using a Gaza Hospital, Posing Risk to Patients and Staff

Source: Wall Street Journal

The aid group, known by its French initials MSF, said it made the decision to pull services from the Nasser Hospital Complex in Khan Younis after its staff witnessed an uptick in what it called unacceptable acts that it said posed a threat to its team and patients.

MSF didn’t say if the armed men in the hospitals belonged to Hamas and declined to answer any follow-up questions. But The Wall Street Journal spoke to two men who said they were detained and interrogated by Hamas at Nasser hospital in recent weeks. 

The Israeli military said on Sunday that it possesses intelligence indicating Hamas is using Nasser Hospital as a military headquarters for senior commanders and operatives in Gaza. 

Nasser Hospital is located inside the Hamas-controlled half of Gaza. The Israeli military controls the rest of the enclave, lines that were drawn as part of the October cease-fire.

(in no way whitewashing or excusing Israel's transgressions - which will be WAY too mild a term for many - understood)

But Hamas has been, and remains, evil and murderous scum. In large part - utterly irredeemable. And that's just the way it is.
