WATCH: Hamas blocks IDF fuel delivery to Gaza's Shifa Hospital

The "evidence" of edit: stealing fuel provided by IDF is some phone conversation where someone says Hamas will take the hospital's fuel reserves.

The official can be heard in the recorded call saying that Hamas has fuel reserves of over half a million liters under the hospital and that if further fuel was brought into the Strip, Hamas would take it as well.

Then the evidence of blocking fuel is again a representative speaking on what Abu Rish says...

"Abu Rish doesn't want this amount [of fuel]. We are trying to convince him."

Such claims about Hamas are certainly plausible, but I call into question their authenticity, because it's possible these calls are fabrications by the IDF if they aren't independently verified. The information war occuring alongside the actual war makes it difficult for me to read through Hamas and IDF bullshit.

Edit: clarified my point a little. Yes they can say they delivered fuel to the hospital with a video that's fine. It's the "they're stealing it" part I'm not entirely convinced.

And this fuel would be enough for ... (wait for it) 30 minutes. The hospital requires 9000-10000 litres a day.

And don't forget that until recently IDF was refusing to admit that the fuel is running out in the hospitals and now they offer 300 liters. How generous of them.

Oh and those babies, that they offered to transport, how are they going to arrange it? Seriously this will require special transportation, with transport incubators, special personnel and should deliver them to another hospital with enough fuel and equipment and guess what there isn't such a hospital in Gaza.

But again this also comes from the IDF who were refusing to admit that there is a humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza and that they are the reason for it.

Yep, it's a real common problem when the government of a country (Hamas in this case) is fundamentally untrustworthy. Makes delivering meaningful aid near impossible.

I don't really trust things coming out of jpost at face value.

I'm sure the Jerusalem Post is who we should be listening to on this matter.

And people are mad at IDF for not doing a cease fire when Hamas is literally stopping humanitarian aide to the people they claim to represent for their own purposes.

I said this in one of the other posts... We require that people match the headline on the post to the original headline on the article.

If you have a problem with the headline, and it's word for word the same as what is on the article, take it up with the publication writing the headline.

This is the best summary I could come up with:

The first was an audio recording of an exchange between a representative of the Coordination and Liaison Administration (CLA), which implements civilian policy regarding the Israeli government's activity in the Gaza Strip, and an official from Shifa Hospital.

IDF Spokesperson R.-Adm. Daniel Hagadi said the military would help evacuate babies from the hospital, at the request of the staff at Shifa.

Israel has said doctors, patients, and thousands of evacuees who have taken refuge at hospitals in northern Gaza must leave so it can tackle Hamas terrorists who it says have placed command centers under and around them.

Ahmed al-Mokhallalati, a senior plastic surgeon at Al Shifa, told Reuters there had been continuous bombardment for more than 24 hours.

Earlier in November, the IDF released proof that Hamas was stealing fuel from Gazan hospitals.

Two days later, they released a recording of a Gazan health official explaining how Hamas stole fuel from Shifa Hospital.

The original article contains 387 words, the summary contains 154 words. Saved 60%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!

So the IDF just dropped them off somewhere at the curb instead of actually delivering it to the hospital and now wonders why the Hamas took the stuff?

Why is fuel being blockaded in the first place?

Israel is starving out the civilian population and then acts shocked when terrorists steal from civilians.
