Israeli authorities, including the IDF and Shin Bet, reported on Thursday that Hamas is using Nasser Hospital in Khan Yunis, southern Gaza, for security interrogations and torture. Hamas’s internal security and military intelligence services are conducting interrogations on the second floor of the hospital’s outpatient clinic, exploiting the facility "as a center of power regardless of its medical function." The statement added that Hamas operatives, including masked members, maintain a presence throughout the complex, exposing patients and staff to their activities.

The IDF states that 85% of Gaza’s hospitals have been used by Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad for terrorism.
