The IDF and Shin Bet revealed today (Thursday) that Hamas is conducting security interrogations and torture at Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis. According to the joint statement, Hamas identifies waning support among Gaza residents and fears losing its grip on the population, therefore intensifying its security apparatus activities and attempting to impose its rule through intimidation, interrogations, and torture. The intelligence information revealed shows that interrogations by Hamas's internal security and military intelligence are taking place in the 'Yassin' building, on the second floor of the outpatient clinics. It is further claimed that Hamas is exploiting the hospital as a governance center, including collecting funds, and that patients and staff witness the constant presence of operatives, some masked. The IDF appealed to Gaza residents, warning that Hamas uses hospitals, schools, and other civilian facilities for its needs, in violation of international law. The statement is quoted in full, with no response from Hamas.
