IDF Spokesman: 'European aid funds were found in Hamas tunnels'

IDF Spokesman Effie Defrin displayed the Hamas facility under the European Hospital and showed how EU aid funds reached the hands of Hamas commanders instead of the Gazan public. IDF spokesman Effie Defrin delivered a statement on Sunday from an underground facility discovered beneath the European Hospital in Khan Yunis, Gaza. Speaking from the site, Defrin condemned the use of civilian infrastructure by Hamas, accusing the group of turning humanitarian facilities into operational terror centers. 

“I am standing in the underground facility beneath the European Hospital in Khan Yunis. This is where European aid funds ended up - not in medical care, but in the construction of terror tunnels and infrastructure,” he said, displaying a large pile of cash located in the tunnel. “Hamas has once again made cynical use of a civilian hospital, using it not to save lives, but to facilitate death and murder. This is one of the places from which the October 7 attacks were orchestrated.” 

Defrin confirmed that senior Hamas leaders had used the facility, including Mohamed Sinwar, brother of Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar, and Shabana, commander of the Rafah Brigade. “This is the room where Sinwar and Shabana were staying when they were targeted by IDF strikes about a month ago. We can now confirm with certainty that Mohamed Sinwar was here and was killed in the strike,” he stated. “We will continue to hunt down every last member of Hamas until we achieve the objectives of this war.” (Read More)
