Korean media reports ‘Hamas flees’ amid intense fighting at Gaza hospital, Biden ‘protects hospital’

 

In response to the ‘hospital battle’ in the Gaza Strip on the 13th, U.S. President Biden spoke of ‘protecting patients,’ while the Korean media reported that ‘Hamas is fleeing.’

“Battles between Israeli troops and Palestinian militants outside the Gaza Strip's largest hospital have forced thousands of people to flee the sprawling medical facility, but hundreds of patients and others who fled the war remain inside the hospital,” the AP reported. “Health authorities said on Monday,” it was reported on the 13th.

KBS said, “Hamas flees to the south… “Hamas killed while hiding among civilians”>, Munhwa Ilbo <“Hamas lost control of Gaza Strip and fled to the south”>, TV Chosun <Israeli military “Hamas lost control of Gaza Strip and began to flee”> MBN <“Hamas lost control of Gaza Strip and began to flee” It was reported on the 14th with a title such as "Lost... fleeing to the south".
AP continued, “U.S. President Joe Biden said Shifa Hospital ‘must be protected’ and called for ‘less interventionist actions’ by the Israeli military,” and “World Health Organization (WHO) Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said: The hospital has been without electricity and water for three days and is 'no longer functioning as a hospital,' he said. 'There were shootings and bombings outside the building.'

Reuters said, “At least 650 patients were still inside Al Shifa hospital, desperate to be evacuated to other medical facilities,” President Biden said in his first remarks since the weekend incidents, including the reported patient death at Al Shifa. “I said the hospital must be protected,” he said on the 12th.

Reuters continued, “Israel has said that Hamas is using the hospital for military purposes, and the Israeli military on Monday released video and photos of weapons that Hamas was storing in the basement of Rantish Hospital, a pediatric hospital specializing in cancer treatment. “He said.

“My hope and expectation is that there will be less interference in hospitals and that we will continue to have contact with Israel,” President Biden told reporters at the White House. "Negotiations are underway. So I have some hope, but the hospitals have to be protected," he said.

On Monday, fighting also broke out in Al-Quds, the second major hospital in northern Gaza, which was forced to cease operation.

“The Palestinian Red Crescent said there was heavy shooting around the hospital and that a convoy to evacuate patients and staff was unable to get through,” said Nidal al-Mughrabi, a Reuters Gaza reporter. “Israel Quds said it killed 'about 21 terrorists' in retaliation after fighter jets opened fire at the hospital entrance. The group released a video showing men standing at the hospital's main entrance, one of whom appeared to be holding a rocket-propelled grenade launcher, the report said.

Yonhap News reported, “At Al Shifa Hospital, the largest hospital in the Gaza Strip, the number of deaths reached 34, including 27 adults and 7 babies,” the Gaza Strip’s Health Ministry said. The hospital claimed that patients were in danger because electricity and fuel supplies were cut off due to Israeli airstrikes and ground fighting,” said U.S. President Joe Biden, saying, “We hope and expect that there will be less intrusive actions regarding hospitals. “We are maintaining communication with Israel,” he said, urging that Al-Shifa Hospital be protected.

The 'Union' continued, "However, the Israeli military held a press conference and announced that it had identified a Hamas command and control center, various weapons and explosives, and traces of hostage detention in the basement of the Lantisi Hospital in Gaza City," said Major General Daniel Hagari, the Israeli military's chief spokesman. “We are revealing to the world that Hamas is hiding in hospitals,” he said, adding, “Our war is not against the residents of Gaza, but against Hamas, which uses the residents as human shields.”

This article from the 'Union' begins with, "According to Israeli media outlets such as the Jerusalem Post, Times of Israel, and the Associated Press on the 13th (local time), Israeli Army (IDF) soldiers belonging to the Golani Brigade placed the Israeli flag inside the Hamas capitol building the previous day. “Photos and videos of the hoisting were shared on social media,” he said. “Soldiers were armed and holding the Israeli flag and taking commemorative photos on the podium of the Capitol.”

Regarding the battle, the 'Coalition' said, "As the Israeli military's offensive continued, Hamas also attempted a counterattack, but failed to inflict significant damage." “They said they had eliminated the terrorist squad,” the report said.

'United' In this article, <Israeli Minister of Defense Yoav Gallant targeted Hamas and said, "Now there is no force that can stop the Israeli army in the Gaza Strip," and said that Hamas has lost control in the Gaza Strip and is fleeing south>. In addition, some Korean media highlighted ‘Hamas Flee’ as their main headline and article.

The title of the AP article is, Biden says Gaza's largest hospital 'must be protected' as thousands flee fighting.

The New York Times said on this day, “According to Gaza health authorities, new satellite images taken over the weekend show many refugees still sheltering in various parts of the huge complex of Al-Shifa, the largest hospital in Gaza, where Israeli troops advanced to the main gate near the obstetrics and gynecology department. “It contains this,” he said, releasing a related video.

The NYT article includes 'Hospitals surrounded by Israeli troops', 'Lantisi Hospital, Al Nasr Hospital', 'Hospitals evacuated after Israeli troops arrive and fighting breaks out outside', 'Al Shifa Hospital', and surrounding Gaza City hospitals. In ‘Report on Casualties Due to Combat, Strikes, and Power Outages’, it was reported that “Al Quds Hospital said that the Palestinian Red Crescent had stopped operating the hospital after the arrival of the Israeli army and the shelling blackout.” To quote the beginning of the field article, it is as follows:

<The situation at the hospital is serious, doctors said. Doctors said patients were dying due to power outages and lack of oxygen, and the building was constantly shaking due to continued shelling and attacks near the hospital as Israeli troops fighting Hamas fighters closed in.

As Gaza came under heavy Israeli bombing, tens of thousands of people sought refuge in Gaza hospital sites because their homes were damaged or they thought the hospital was less likely to be hit.

As Israeli ground forces approached the hospital, the Israeli military reiterated that refugees, patients and hospital staff should evacuate to southern Gaza, but many Palestinians and aid groups dismissed this order as unfeasible and dangerous.

Many people have left Al Sifah, but the latest satellite images show many still camped out in the courtyard and the parking lot between the buildings.

Prime Minister Dr. Medhat Abbas, spokesman for the Gaza Strip's Health Ministry, said in a phone interview that about 8,000 refugees remain.

Israeli officials say that beneath a roughly 12-acre hospital complex in Gaza City is a massive underground Hamas command center, one of Hamas' main targets.

Hamas and hospital doctors deny the existence of such a command center.

International calls are growing to save al-Shifa and other hospitals, which have been hit repeatedly during the fighting. The Israeli military says it did not attack them intentionally.>
