i24 News – In a meticulously detailed presentation on Sunday, IDF Spokesman Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari offered copious evidence pointing to the scope of Hamas crimes against the civilian population in Gaza. Hagari’s presentation zeroed in on the use the terrorist group makes of hospitals and other medical facilities in Gaza, converting them into operation centers and launchpads for missiles, while shielding themselves behind the civilians using them.

Hagari screened a video showing a shaft leading underground Sheikh Hamad Hospital, which he said is connected to Hamas tunnel networks. He showed photo evidence of several rocket launchpads placed in close proximity to hospitals as to prevent IDF strikes.

A recording was played of an intercepted phone call of a non-Hamas Gazan official, where a man is heard saying “They say there is a fuel shortage in Gaza, they are liars, liars. There is no fuel shortage of fuel in Gaza. It is in the hands of Hamas.”

Hagari also offered video evidence of Hamas violently deterring Gazans from moving to a safer area, as the IDF urges them through some six millions of leaflets dropped from the air.
