Watan-The Israeli occupation army has become a subject of ridicule due to the claims it made about Rantisi Hospital, alleging the presence of weapons and bombs in a basement designated for children in the hospital.
During a press conference, the spokesperson for the Israeli army, Daniel Haggai, appeared and presented a video from one of the hospitals in the Gaza Strip. He put forth allegations in an attempt to justify the blockade and Israeli attacks on Gaza hospitals.
Haggai claimed that the occupation forces found weaponry, explosive belts, and a Hamas operations room beneath Rantisi Hospital, alleging that there is evidence of some prisoners being held in the basement of Rantisi Hospital, according to his claims.
Haggai’s Alleged Evidence Against Hamas
The Israeli spokesperson considered the presence of curtains and towels as evidence supporting the claims he presented, asserting that the existence of a curtain hanging on a wall without windows confirms this.
However, the most laughable aspect was a photo of a paper that the Israeli spokesperson claimed listed the names of guards for the prisoners held by the Palestinian resistance, despite it being a roster for
nursing staff.
Haggai stated, ‘In this room, there is a list, in Arabic, saying, ‘We are in a battle against Israel, a battle that began on October 7th.’
However, upon zooming in on the image presented by the Israeli spokesperson, it became clear that it displayed the days of the week written on a white schedule posted on one of the walls. This schedule was related to the nursing team’s shifts at the hospital.
سخرية عالمية لفيديو نشره الجيش الاسرائيلي من قبو مستشفى الرنتيسي:
حيث تم تصوير قائمة بأيام الاسبوع "جدول المناوبات" مدعياً انها اسماء الارهابيين باللغة العربية.

•لنفهم درجة البؤس والارتباك لدى الاجهزة الاسرائيلية:
يكفي ان نعلم بان هذا الفيديو تم تصويره مع CNN ودقق عليه… pic.twitter.com/PbiubaI1pM— Ahmad_Alyehri (@Ahmad_Alyehri) November 14, 2023
Widespread Ridicule of the Occupation Army
This new Israeli scandal has turned the occupation army into a source of mockery, prompting many Israeli activists to call for the removal of the video due to this embarrassment.
Palestinian writer Radwan Al-Akhras commented in a tweet on X platform: ‘This is not a joke… The occupation presented a paper with the days of the week in front of all the world’s media as a military document and evidence of the use of Rantisi Hospital as a headquarters for the Qassam Brigades.
He added, ‘These petty criminals without Western support and advanced American weapons can’t do anything significant on the ground. They are nothing more than lying criminal thugs and lowly thieves… Indeed, they have gathered for us the scum of the earth and the dregs of nations on our land.
The activist and academic Sam Youssef said, ‘They lie as they breathe… Israeli propaganda points to the random calendar in Rantisi Hospital as evidence of a list for keeping prisoners, but the only thing on that list is literally the days of the week (Saturday-Friday).
يكذبون كما يتنفسون!! تشير الدعاية الإسرائيلية إلى التقويم العشوائي في مستشفى الرنتيسي باعتباره "دليلًا" على "قائمة حفظة الرهائن" التي تحتوي على "أسماء الإرهابيين".لكن الشيء الوحيد في تلك "القائمة" هو حرفيًا أيام الأسبوع (السبت-الجمعة).

Adnan Baqer tweeted, ‘The Israeli occupation army released a video claiming that the calendar in Rantisi Children’s Hospital in Gaza contains a list of Hamas names, and everyone saw it. The problem is that the paper is written with the days of the week in Arabic… I’ve never seen people trying to slaughter the days of the week before… There is no power nor strength except in Allah.
جيش الدفاع الإسرائيلي نزل ڤيديو يقول إن التقويم في مستشفى الرنتيسي للأطفال في غزة يحتوي على قائمة اسماء حماس وكل واحد وشفته. المشكلة ان الورقة مكتوب فيها ايام الاسبوع باللغة العربية 😂😂
انا اول مره اشوف ناس تبي تذبح ايام الاسبوع … لا حول ولا قوة الا بالله 😂 pic.twitter.com/QjWVhbrBQb

Israelis Distance Themselves from the Scandal
Meanwhile, activist Ahmed Saleh stated that Israelis deleted the image that claimed to contain a list of prisoner names after they learned that the military spokesperson had lied to them, and that the schedule only included the names of the days of the week.
Hamas Responds to Occupation’s Claims
Politically, Khalil al-Hayya, a member of the political bureau of the Hamas movement, stated that the Israeli occupation’s talk about the presence of armed individuals in Rantisi Hospital is a false claim.
In remarks to Al Jazeera, he added that the spokesperson for the Israeli army did not provide any evidence for his false accusations against the resistance of using hospitals for military purposes.”
الاسرائيليين حذفوا الصورة اللي قالوا ان ده جدول فيه أسماء اللي كانوا محتجزين الرهائن
بعدما علموا ان المتحدثين كذبوا عليهمو هذا الجدول فقط به مجرد اسماء ايام الاسبوع 😂 pic.twitter.com/g0OrO86YSJ
