The human rights group said that narratives released by IOF about any findings in Al Shifa can't be considered credible, but are rather examples of misinformation.

Israeli occupation forces have converted al-Shifa Hospital into a military barracks, handcuffing a large number of its attending doctors and indiscriminately opening fire throughout the health facility as they storm patient wards without constraints, Al Mayadeen's correspondent reported on Wednesday.

Furthermore, the IOF have cut off all communications in the hospital, isolating the facility from the outside world.

The Israeli army has been attacking the al-Shifa Medical Complex since last week as part of their attempt to destroy Gaza's health sector and damage the morale of civilians and Resistance fighters, who have been relentlessly confronting invading forces.

Our correspondent further noted that the Israeli forces stormed the dialysis department, the intensive care unit, and other specialized sections, as well as other critical parts of the hospital.

al-Shifa hospital is now the site of an ongoing war crime, the correspondent said, noting that the medical complex is under complete siege of Israeli tanks.

Al-Shifa Hospital: A Center for Detention and Abuse

In a report, the Euro-Mediterranean Human Rights Monitor has issued a stern warning against "Israel's" actions at the medical complex. The organization said the occupation has converted the complex's facilities into a detention center for patients, displaced individuals, and medical personnel.

The Human Rights Monitor vehemently denounced the military-backed incursion by Israeli forces into al-Shifa, sounding alarms about potential potential deaths and executions that might be perpetrated by Israeli forces at the site.

Furthermore, the report highlighted the occupation forces' efforts to muzzle Ministry of Health officials, barring them from speaking to the media, also noting "Israel's" refusal to allow inspections by any third-party international bodies, including UN organizations, effectively monopolizing the control over information dissemination. This move casts doubt on the validity of any future narratives released by Israel regarding the situation.

The report also addresses the spread of false claims by the Israeli forces during their raid on the hospital.

Israelis alleged that Israeli captives were held in the hospital by the Resistance, a claim that was proven false by Doron Kadosh, a military affairs correspondent for Israeli Army radio, who confirmed the absence of captives in the hospital.
