Just as PR, it’s good that this time they at least MENTIONED that it’s illegal to use a hospital for military purposes. Even if they did put it at the end of the long post so most people won’t see it.
But they should have added explicitly that Hamas’ doing so makes them a legal target under LOAC. Lots of people honestly believe that it’s always illegal to attack a target in a hospital.
Seems that all in all, it’s still incompetent PR, but better than it used to be. Still, was the announcement on social media only in text-oriented format? Should be messaging about it on video-based platforms too, because they’ll be full of posts about how the IDF “attacked a hospital”.
🎯 STRUCK: A senior Hamas terrorist and additional terrorists operating within Nasser Hospital in Khan Yunis, southern Gaza, to eliminate the threat they posed.
Hamas used the hospital complex as a hub for military and terrorist activities against IDF troops and Israel, including:
• Storing weapons.
• Conducting interrogations and torture.
• Operating command-and-control rooms.
• Using hospital facilities as observation posts and shelters for terrorists.
Hamas’ use of the hospital for military purposes constitutes a blatant violation of international law and endangers patients, medical personnel & civilians.
Further updates on its results will follow.

Jokes on you climatetards. Left has moved on.
