The Facts
Following a two-week raid, Israeli forces withdrew from the Al-Shifa hospital in Gaza City on Monday.
In a statement following the withdrawal, Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said they exited the compound after a "precise" operation that "killed terrorists" and found "numerous weapons and intelligence documents," while claiming to prevent "harm to civilians, patients and medical teams."
The Spin
Pro-Israel narrative
Israel has withdrawn from the Al-Shifa hospital in Gaza after a successful operation in which Israeli troops killed and captured many Palestinian terrorists. Numerous weapons and intelligence documents were also seized from the site.
Pro-Palestine narrative
Despite Israel's allegations, there's no evidence the Al-Shifa hospital in Gaza was being used by Hamas fighters. These are lies spread by Israel in an attempt to justify war crimes.
