Original Note:
If Hamas are using a hospital as a military facility it may become a legitimate target. Geneva Convention I, Article 21 states that medical establishments lose protection if they are used for hostile acts, provided a warning has been given and ignored. https://ihl-databases.icrc.org/en/ihl-treaties/gci-1949/article-21
