A hospital in Gaza funded by foreign Muslim donors was custom-built with tunnels for Hamas terrorists to use, Israel claimed on Sunday.
The Israel Defense Forces produced video evidence that it said proved that two hospitals in Gaza, funded by donors from Qatar and Indonesia, were equipped with underground tunnels that were part of Hamas’s “terror Metro”.
The IDF alleged that Hamas fighters had opened fire on Israeli troops from the buildings of Gaza’s Sheikh Hamad bin Khalifa al-Thani Hospital, built by Qatar’s former ruler in 2016.
And they said that the Indonesia Hospital, funded by Indonesian donors including the Indonesian Red Cross Society, had been specially equipped with tunnels for Hamas to use when its foundations were first laid.
“Hamas systematically built the Indonesia Hospital to disguise its underground terror infrastructure,” said Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari, an IDF spokesman, in a media briefing on Sunday.
