Israel’s Defense Minister Yoav Gallant commended the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) for their actions during a briefing on Monday following the withdrawal from Gaza’s Al-Shifa hospital. Gallant praised the IDF and Shin Bet personnel for their determined and professional conduct during the operation inside the medical complex.
The Defense Minister described the 14-day hospital siege as a precise and deadly operation that caught fighters from Hamas and Islamic Jihad off guard, resulting in hundreds being killed or captured. Gallant stated that the terrorist base in Shifa had been eliminated as a result of the operation.
