The IDF confirms that troops are operating inside Hamas tunnels in the area of the European Hospital in southern Gaza’s Khan Younis, where Hamas leader Muhammad Sinwar was targeted on May 13.
“During the activity, IDF troops reached an underground route that was struck three weeks ago, where Muhammad Sinwar and other terrorists were residing. In the area, bodies of terrorists who have not yet been identified were located,” the military says.
The IDF says it also located several findings “that prove the cynical use made by the Hamas terror organization of the hospital as a shield for its operations.”
