The IDF and Shin Bet disclosed intelligence showing that Hamas conducts security interrogations and torture inside Nasser Hospital in Khan Yunis. The agencies said Hamas Internal Security and Military Intelligence operate in the Yassin building on the second floor of the hospital's outpatient clinics. They said masked Hamas operatives maintain a permanent presence around the complex, which is also used as a nonmedical governance center for interrogations, torture and collecting money. The agencies said Hamas is intensifying its security mechanisms as support declines and accused it of exploiting hospitals and other civilian facilities in violation of international law.
