Gaza’s Shifa Hospital is open for any UN investigative body, directory says

The director of Gaza’s main Al-Shifa Hospital in Gaza has called on the United Nations to send an enquiry delegation to investigate allegations made by Israel regarding the presence of Hamas infrastructure in the hospital, calling the allegations ‘lies’. The director emphasised that all health facilities in Gaza are open for scrutiny by any international body willing to investigate the claims. This comes as Israeli warplanes have targeted several hospitals in Gaza and the army has threatened to bomb Al-Shifa Hospital claiming it contains Hamas’ command centre in the besieged enclave.
