The ministry condemned the raid and called on the international community to pressure Israel’s military to halt such operations in hospitals. A hospital spokesperson said there was no exchange of fire, indicating that it was a targeted killing.

Footage said to be security camera video from the hospital that circulated on social media showed about a dozen undercover forces, most of them armed, dressed as women with Muslim headscarves or hospital staff in scrubs or white doctor’s coats. One in a surgical mask carried a rifle in one arm and a folded wheelchair in the other. The forces were seen patting down one man who kneeled against a wall, his arms raised.

    Remember when there was public debate about the morality of bombing Al-Shifa, because Hamas “100% has a command bunker bro, look we made a graphics render to prove it” and now… this? A hit squad storming into a hospital, and murdering three people.

    Targeted killings don’t work to stop a movement, unless genocide is still on the table - you cannot kill away the Palestinian/Kurdish/Tigray/Tamil/etc problem. You can blunt a movement temporarily, but the mid level leaders invariably get replaced by more hardline extremists. That is how we ended up with Hamas/PIJ/Lions Den/etc after the Fedayeen were murdered/suppressed and that rage went somewhere… right into the arms of Iran.
