Tens of thousands of Palestinians displaced by the war have sought shelter in the complex, according to the Hamas-run health ministry in Gaza.

Palestinians inspect Al Shifa Hospital which was raided by Israeli forces during its ground operation, amid a temporary truce between Israel and the Palestinian militant group Hamas, in Gaza City, Nov 25, 2023. The Israeli army launched on Monday an operation around Gaza's largest hospital Al-Shifa, with witnesses reporting air strikes on the devastated neighbourhood where it is located.

"The operation is based on intelligence information indicating the use of the hospital by senior Hamas terrorists".The Israeli army also carried out a November operation in Al-Shifa, sparking an international outcry. The Hamas government media office in Gaza condemned the operation, saying that"the storming of the Al-Shifa medical complex with tanks, drones, and weapons, and shooting inside it, is a war crime".

The war began when Hamas launched an unprecedented attack from Gaza on Oct 7 that resulted in about 1,160 deaths in Israel, mostly civilians, according to an AFP tally of official figures.Vowing to destroy Hamas, Israel has carried out a relentless bombardment and ground offensive that the health ministry in the Palestinian territory says has killed at least 31,645 people, most of them women and children.
