JERUSALEM, Nov 19 (Reuters) - Israel stepped up accusations of Hamas abuses at the Gaza Strip’s biggest hospital on Sunday, saying a captive soldier had been executed and two foreign hostages held at a site that has been a focus of its devastating six-week-old offensive.

    So the claim is that the hospital is complicit for treating wounded people? Should Hamas have just left them to die instead?

      Was that claim made?

      I think what this footage shows is that hospital staff were not truthful in their statements about having no knowledge of Hamas being in the hospital.

      However, I think it’s very understandable that they would lie to the world about this. The hospital staff live day to day under the control of Hamas. Anyone who speaks up against Hamas risks their life by doing so. If the medical workers want to continue to save lives, they cannot speak out against Hamas.
