Israeli troops pull out of Gaza hospital - witnesses - BBC News
Israeli troops have pulled out of al-Shifa hospital in Gaza City, according to witnesses who spoke to the BBC.
The medical facility was first raided two weeks ago after the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said it had intelligence indicating Hamas was using it as a base to launch attacks.
Following the withdrawal on Monday, Palestinian media reports said dozens of bodies were found in the vicinity of the complex, citing witnesses and the Hamas-run health ministry.
The Israeli PM made his remarks on Sunday night prior to entering surgery to treat a hernia discovered during a routine check-up.
The surgery took place amid demonstrations held in Jerusalem fuelled by mounting anger over his government’s handling of the war in Gaza. Thousands took to the streets demanding more action to free hostages.
