The IDF says troops have killed more than 200 gunmen during its ongoing operation against Hamas at Gaza City’s Shifa Hospital.
Over the past day, Hamas gunmen came out of Shifa’s emergency room, where they were holed up, and opened fire at troops, according to the IDF.
The IDF says this has happened several times over the past few days.
Amid the ongoing fighting, the military says troops evacuated civilians, patients, and medical staff to another part of the hospital “which the IDF prepared and established to allow proper medical treatment to continue.”
Meanwhile, the IDF says dozens more Hamas operatives were killed during operations over the past day in southern Gaza’s al-Qarara and the al-Amal neighborhood of Khan Younis.

Troops operating in southern Gaza also located and destroyed caches of weapons, the IDF says.
In central Gaza, the IDF says several terror operatives were killed over the past day by troops of the Nahal Brigade, including by calling in airstrikes.
