The Gaza war against Hamas already exceeds in duration the one that Israel fought in 2006 in southern Lebanon, when it was drawn against the pro-Iran militia Hezbollah, but its consequences are being much more devastating, with more than 11,000 dead according to the health services of the Strip, controlled by the Islamist movement for 17 years. This Friday, Israeli tanks surrounded the hospitals in the north of the enclave and opened fire on a patio of the Al Shifa health complex, the most important and in whose basement the military intelligence services locate the command center of the armed wing of Hamas. . This same group has assured that at least 13 people have died in that hospital, a figure that the World Health Organization (WHO) has not been able to confirm. Israel flatly denies this, assures that it protects the civilian population and specifies that its operations are directed against militants hiding in residential areas. A health official has assured that at least 25 people have died in an air attack against a school in the Strip.
