Israeli media pointed out on Wednesday that the extensive Israeli propaganda following the Israeli occupation forces' incursion of the al-Shifa Medical Complex in Gaza was a disappointment for Israeli settlers who believed that "Israel" would eliminate the Hamas movement during the assault.

The media indicated that the leadership of Hamas remains cohesive even after the incursion of al-Shifa, and its fighters continue to launch rockets toward "Tel Aviv" and Gaza Envelope settlements.

It mentioned that Israeli occupation forces reached al-Shifa but the goal of the operation was not achieved, as the Israeli forces failed to capture Hamas leader in Gaza Yahya al-Sinwar and Commander-in-Chief of al-Qassam Brigades Mohammad Deif.

It added mockingly that the Israeli occupation military announced that it had killed a Hamas official who is unknown to any Israeli.

Yair Cherki, the religion reporter for the Israeli Channel 12, said: "I hear about the widespread disappointment in Israel not only from those sitting at home but also from the soldiers who returned from Gaza, who spent about two weeks there."

"There is great disappointment regarding Israeli prisoners in the Gaza Strip," Cherki highlighted.

On his part, Arab affairs analyst on Israeli Channel 13, Zvi Yehezkeli, said that it is clear that there is nothing of real value in al-Shifa Hospital that the Israeli forces stormed, adding that the Hospital matter is a "distraction that Israel has been subjected to for more than a week, and in the end, these distraction stories will produce disappointment among the Israeli public."

"Israel" worked on spreading false narratives simultaneously with the incursion of al-Shifa, claiming that the hospital houses Israeli captives. However, this narrative was quickly debunked by the military affairs correspondent for the Israeli Army Radio, Doron Kadosh, who confirmed the absence of captives in the hospital.

Hamas confirmed earlier that the Israeli claims about weapons in al-Shifa Hospital are a continuation of blatant lies and cheap propaganda, through which the occupation tries to justify its crime aimed at destroying the health sector in Gaza.

The government Media Office in Gaza announced that more than 30 unarmed Palestinians were killed by Israeli occupation forces in al-Shifa Hospital, as they opened fire on families who tried to leave the hospital.

The Office stressed that the occupation's aggression and assault on the al-Shifa Medical Complex, its departments, and everyone in it, including patients, displaced Palestinians, and the medical staff, amounts to yet another war crime committed by the Israeli occupation.

It is also important to underline that while al-Shifa was getting invaded, the occupation also cut off all communications from the hospital. The communication blackout started at 1:00 pm today, on Wednesday, according to Al Mayadeen’s correspondent.

Our correspondent reported that 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.

The occupation forces have 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.

Al Mayadeen's 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.
