Israel’s former defence minister Naftali Bennett, in a video posted to YouTube on the Gaza situation, referred to Pakistan’s Shifa International Hospital as Hamas Headquarters where the Al-Qassam Brigade of Hamas has been operating.
“Ever heard of Shifa Hospital? It is the largest medical complex in Gaza. It’s also where Hamas’ headquarters is located while they are conducting terror actions against Israel”, he explained while showing a picture of the Shifa Hospital building in the background.

At 0:25, what this man claims to be a Hamas base in Gaza is actually Shifa International Hospital in Islamabad, Pakistan, which once again proves that these people have zero credibility and will state nonsense, blatant lies to support their agenda. https://t.co/z9E3NBc4cE
