Israeli Army Detains Al-Shifa Hospital Director and Medical Staff in Gaza

The director of Al Shifa Hospital in the Gaza Strip, Dr Muhammad Abu Salamiyah, is being questioned by the Israeli military over allegations that the hospital was used as a command and control center for Hamas. Israeli troops entered the hospital earlier this month and claimed to have found evidence of Hamas military infrastructure and weapons. Palestinians have accused Israel of targeting a medical facility where civilians sought shelter, while Israel argues that Hamas violated international law by using the hospital for military purposes. The arrests of Abu Salamiyah and other doctors have drawn condemnation from Palestinian authorities and Hamas.
