Israeli claims of tunnel under European Hospital ‘fabricated’: Media office
The Government Media Office in Gaza has rejected Israeli claims of a “resistance tunnel” beneath the European Gaza Hospital in the southern Gaza Strip, calling the allegations “fabricated, flawed and full of loopholes”.
In a news release, the office slammed a video released by the Israeli army showing a purported tunnel, describing it as “flimsy and made in a naive manner”.
“It shows a narrow iron pipe whose diameter is not even wide enough for a person to pass through, and it does not contain stairs or equipment, and is in no way suitable to be a tunnel, and this area, by the way, is a rainwater drainage area,” it said.
“The examination indicates that the occupation forces were the ones who dug the site and placed the pipe, and then filmed a dramatic scene near the hospital’s emergency department,” it charged.
They added that this was not the first time Israel has “fabricated false narratives about hospitals”. “They had previously attempted to fabricate lies about al-Shifa, Nasser and Hamad hospitals,” the statement noted.
Lol just show a pipe then quickly cut to old footage.
UNRWA urges urgent action to restore supplies for babies in Gaza
While an estimated 300 million nappies are sold daily worldwide, families in Gaza are facing an acute shortage, the UN agency for Palestinian refugees has highlighted.
“A consistent flow of essential supplies – including diapers, soap and wipes – is critical for children’s survival and health,” UNRWA posted on X. “A standard flow of humanitarian supplies also for babies in Gaza must be restored.”
