TEL AVIV, Israel
Israel Defence Forces Chief Spokesman, Daniel Hagari revealed late Monday night an underground Hamas command center under the Rantisi Hospital that not only contained suicide vests, rocket-propelled grenades and a variety of weapons but also indications, such as baby bottles, that Hamas had held Israeli hostages there.
He said there was evidence and
independent separate intelligence that Hamas terrorists had returned directly
to the hospital after their attacks and mass murders of Israelis on October 7.
A video showing the basement
of the hospital revealed a location disconnected from the rest of the medical
facility where the significant stash of terror explosives and armaments were kept.
Hagari showed a motorcycle
with a bullet hole inside it and items connected to one of the hostages in the
vicinity of the motorcycle.
One of the chairs showed ropes
and other items indicating that a hostage had been held there.
A baby bottle and other baby
materials were found which the IDF said were connected to a hostage baby. There
were also improvised toilets, which Hagari said was infrastructure to hold
hostages.
A list on a board marked the
days since October 7, possibly indicating when the terrorists left, likely with
hostages.
He said he was not sure if the
terrorists used the evacuation to escape or used additional networks of
underground tunnels.
