    Israel Releases Head of Gaza’s Al-Shifa Hospital After 7-Month Detention

    Latest updates: IDF orders mass evacuation from much of Khan Younis, again • director of Gaza’s Al-Shifa Hospital released • IDF announces the discovery and destruction of the largest rocket manufacturing site of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad found to date • Full Story

    The Israeli army ordered a mass evacuation from much of Khan Younis today, a sign that troops are likely to launch a new ground assault in the Gaza Strip’s second largest city.

    Israel told people to move to Muwasi, a coastal area designated by the Israeli army as a safe zone and which has transformed into a crowded tent camp. Israeli forces pulled out of Khan Younis earlier this year after a ground offensive left much of the city in ruins, claiming to have destroyed Hamas battalions there.

    Israel says it’s in the final stages of the Rafah operation.

    Last week, the military also ordered Palestinians up north in Gaza City to evacuate from the Shijaiyah neighborhood, where there has since been intense fighting.

    Israel has released dozens of arabs it detained from Gaza, including the director of Gaza’s main hospital, Al-Shifa Hospital, which the IDF raided twice.

    The IDF has announced the discovery and destruction of the largest rocket manufacturing site of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad found to date, located in Rafah.

    According to the IDF, soldiers from the Commando Brigade, the 401st Armored Brigade, and the elite Yahalom combat engineering unit raided an Islamic Jihad compound and an underground site in the northwestern Tel Sultan neighborhood of Rafah.

    The troops uncovered an underground facility used by Islamic Jihad to produce rocket parts and long-range rockets, the IDF reports.
