The Israeli military contradicts statements that it called for the evacuation of the Shifa clinic. It is true that they want to expand an operation to clear the largest clinic in the Gaza Strip. However, this was done at the request of the director of the Shifa Hospital in Gaza, the military said. However, at no point was the evacuation of patients or medical staff ordered. It’s more about making it possible for other people who had sought protection in the clinic to “do so safely.”
The military says it is also offering to enable the evacuation of patients. Medical staff will remain in the hospital, to take care of patients who could not leave the clinic, it continues.
