Original Note:
Israel's attack on al-Shifa Hospital likely violates international humanitarian law (IHL). Hamas's presence alone cannot count as "acts harmful to the enemy" under IHL. Israel is also obligated to minimize harm & rapidly restore health services— which Israel did not do. https://www.icrc.org/en/document/protection-hospitals-during-armed-conflicts-what-law-says
