Israeli troops withdraw from al-Shifa hospital, leaving piles of dead bodies
Israel's army has withdrawn from al-Shifa Hospital in Gaza following a two week siege, leaving in its wake destroyed buildings and piles of dead bodies.
The complex - the largest medical facility in all of Palestine - was left in complete ruins. Military officials said on Monday that its forces killed 200 people and arrested 900 during its 15-day military assault on the hospital. Gaza's civil defence put the figure of those killed at around 300.
The army said it conducted its raid without harming civilians and medical personnel, but medical organisations and eyewitnesses have strongly rejected the claim.
