A new video has emerged showing the deteriorating situation at one of Khan Younis' only functioning hospitals in Gaza. Patients are being evacuated from Nassar Hospital following a disturbing incident involving Israeli military personnel. Witnesses reported that medical staff were rounded up, forced to strip, and left waiting in the cold for hours. Only a few workers were allowed back inside to attend to patients, with reports of physical abuse against one nurse.
The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) have responded to these allegations by stating that they were following international humanitarian laws of warfare. The IDF claimed they had information suggesting hostages or hostages' remains might be present at the hospital. However, they found medicine intended for hostages that had not been delivered. This was part of an agreement brokered by Qatar for Israel to provide medical aid to elderly and sick hostages.
