Al-Shifa Hospital, the Gaza Strip’s largest medical complex, has enough fuel to power its backup generators for another four days at most, its director said Wednesday.
“If electricity stops, our hospitals will become nothing but mass graves,” the director, Dr. Muhammad Abu Salima, said. The hospital has limited its electricity consumption to essential services only, he said. …
“This is an unprecedented event,” Dr. Abu Salima said. “This equates to mass execution. A massacre!”
[Not mentioned even a single time in this article: the fact that Hamas has its headquarters and command-control functions in the hospital. This is not a secret. The Washington Post reported on it as common knowledge in 2014, when Hamas used it for the same purpose it does today — as a human shield against Israeli military attacks on a completely legit military target. It’s a propaganda tool as well, and the New York Times is a collection of tools for amplifying it. — Ed]
