'Race against time' for IDF to justify Al-Shifa raid or 'risk compromising entire' Gaza operation

Israeli troops carried out building-by-building searches at Gaza's main hospital on Friday, after a communications blackout in the Palestinian territory compounded fears for civilians trapped inside the facility. Al-Shifa hospital has become a focal point for Israeli operations in northern Gaza since soldiers raided the complex on Wednesday, hunting for a command centre they say militant group Hamas operates at the site. Hamas and hospital managers deny that charge, and there has been international concern about thousands of people -- including wounded patients and premature babies -- believed to be inside. As Israeli forces search Gaza hospital, FRANCE 24's Will Hilderbrandt is joined by Dr Rob Geist Pinfold, Lecturer in Peace and Security in the School of Government and International Affairs at Durham University.
