Tel Aviv Tribune’s camera monitored the situation inside Al Sahel Hospital in the southern suburb of Beirut, which received threats from the Israeli occupation army to target it, claiming the presence of Hezbollah tunnels and infrastructure in the hospital’s basements.
Tel Aviv Tribune correspondent Salam Khader visited the hospital at the arrangement of its administration, who explained that due to Israeli threats, the medical staff was forced to evacuate all patients, whether those who were receiving treatment or those who were undergoing surgery, including kidney patients.
One of the doctors told Tel Aviv Tribune that they were surprised by the statement of the occupation army, and there was a state of panic among the team that was following up on the patients. He confirmed that the hospital administration called for a media tour for journalists to document everything.
Tel Aviv Tribune’s camera went to the second floor of the underground hospital, where the morgue, the place for washing the dead, and electrical power generation devices are located.
For his part, the doctor who runs Al-Sahel Hospital (the report did not mention his name) said that the infrastructure that the Israeli occupation army is talking about is a morgue, surgical operating rooms, etc., indicating that everyone is afraid of targeting the hospital.
The Tel Aviv Tribune correspondent confirmed after her tour of the second floor that the existing infrastructure belongs to Al-Sahel Hospital, including air conditioning equipment, electric generators, waste areas, and other places essential for the work of any hospital.
On Monday, Israel threatened to continue bombing the southern suburb of the Lebanese capital, Beirut, in the coming hours, claiming that Hezbollah “keeps millions of dollars under a hospital in the suburb to use it to finance its activities.”
Israeli army spokesman Daniel Hagari said in a statement to the media yesterday, “Now we reveal that Hezbollah has placed the shelter of (the party’s late Secretary General) Hassan Nasrallah under the Sahel Hospital located in the heart of Beirut.”
