Seventy Hamas terrorists surrendered to Israeli forces out of the Kamal Adwan Hospital this week, following an intense firefight in the Beit Lahiya region of Gaza.
“During operational activity in the area of the Kamal Adwan Hospital, IDF troops located a building used by Hamas terrorist operatives and located weapons inside. Additionally, during engagements with terrorists in the area of the hospital, a number of terrorists were killed by IDF troops,” the Israel Defense Forces said in a statement.
“During IDF activity in the area, over 70 terrorist operatives came out of the hospital with weapons in hand. The terrorists were transferred to field interrogators from Unit 504 in the Intelligence Directorate and ISA coordinators for further questioning.”
The armed terrorists were reportedly using the hospital as a base for military attacks.
