Amidst the ongoing conflict in Gaza, Israel's actions have come under intense scrutiny, particularly concerning the targeting of hospitals and other essential medical facilities. According to the World Health Organization, there have been over 300 attacks on medical facilities so far, resulting in significant damage to the healthcare system. While Israel claims to be targeting terrorists who use these facilities as shields, a comprehensive investigation by Source questions whether the ends can truly justify the means.
The study conducted an in-depth analysis, spanning several months, to assess the situation. It revealed that during the initial two months of the war, Israel launched air and land offensives on the northern part of the Strip, resulting in the destruction or damage of 20 out of 22 hospitals in that area. More than half of these hospitals were directly attacked.
