Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari, the top spokesperson for the Israel Defence Forces (IDF), also accused the militant group of preventing remaining civilians in northern Gaza from heeding Israeli warnings to flee south.
“I want to be clear, the IDF adjusted our ground operations to keep the corridors from the north to the south open, but Hamas is attacking our forces,” the spokesperson told a news briefing.
Rear Admiral Hagari used the briefing to try to explain the efforts Israel has taken to warn civilians to move out of harm’s way in the north - dropping more than 1.5 million leaflets and calling nearly 20,000 residents.
Hamas fighters also opened fire on approaching Israeli ground troops - from inside the hospital, the spokesperson claimed.
“Today we will also release evidence that the Indonesian hospital is being used by Hamas to hide an underground command and control centre,” Rear Admiral Hagari said.
At least 15 people were killed and 60 were wounded in an Israeli airstrike on an ambulance convoy near a hospital in Gaza on Thursday, the Palestinian territory’s health ministry has said.
