The IDF has withdrawn troops and tanks from the Al-Shifa hospital in Gaza City after a ground operation that lasted two weeks.
In an update shared on Sunday, the IDF said its troops in Shifa had “eliminated terrorists in close-quarter combat and located weapons in the area, all the while preventing harm to civilians, patients and medical teams.”
Soldiers from elite unit Shayetet 13, the 401st Brigade and the Nahal Brigade under the command of the 162nd Division left the Strip’s largest medical complex.
Approximately 200 terrorists were killed and more than 500 Hamas and Islamic Jihad members were arrested during the operation, including senior officials said the IDF.
