IDF International Spokesperson Lt. Col. Jonathan Conricus told a BBC reporting team accompanying soldiers during their targeted raids inside the medical centre that pictures and videos of some of the hostages after they were taken to Gaza were found on laptop computers.

“We uncovered a lot of equipment that can shed light on the current situation, hopefully also regarding the hostages,” said Conricus.

Dr. Muhammad Abu-Salamiyyah, director of Shifa, told Al Jazeera that “the IDF forces collected bodies from the hospital.”...

The IDF said on Thursday that the air force’s elite Shaldag commando unit and soldiers from the 36th Armored Division continue to operate in the Shifa Hospital complex, and that the operations are “focused” as special forces carefully move from building to building, scanning each floor.

Patients and staff are still in the hospital as the soldiers operate with “discretion, patience and thoroughness.

“We operate with the understanding that there is much more terror infrastructure in the area of the complex that is well hidden,” the IDF said...

Troops entered Shifa overnight Tuesday to conduct what the military said was a precision operation against Hamas, which is headquartered in a vast tunnel system underneath the Gaza Strip’s largest hospital.

They kept the hostages in the basement... Even found the room where they did the filming... It had curtains against a concrete brick wall and leather sofas... Made up to look like they were in a house... But they were in the basement of a hospital... And of course, none of the ‘doctors’, the World Health Organization and the UN didn’t realized that this was going on at this hospital right underneath their feet... Right?

I saw a video last night of the IDF spokesman taking the videographer around the hospital. There were “go bags” stashed right around the MRI machines and in a closet right around the corner from the MRI machines. So, maybe the MRI technician was a Hamas operative.

Israel has BBC film crews going along with them into the hospital (a sign of how confident Israel is about this), and the BBC is no real friend of Israel

if anything isn’t quite right, the BBC will say so ... let’s see what they report
