Israeli forces enter Gaza's Al-Shifa hospital where conditions described as horrific

After sharp warnings from the US and others that Al-Shifa must be protected, Israel said the raid was being executed based on “an operational necessity”.

The UN has said it estimates that at least 2,300 people are inside the hospital and may be unable to escape because of fierce fighting.

A journalist inside the hospital said Israeli soldiers were interrogating people this morning, among them patients and doctors.

The White House has said that US intelligence sources corroborated Israel's claim that Hamas had buried an operational "command and control node" under Al-Shifa.
