On Friday, the military reported that during the operation at the hospital, forces discovered medicines bearing the name of Israeli hostages.
"The origin of the medications and their use are currently under investigation," the army announced Friday evening. However, security officials estimate these were not part of the medicine shipment for the hostages facilitated by Qatar last month.
On Thursday, after weeks of Palestinian allegations of a "siege" on Nasser Hospital by Israeli forces, the IDF confirmed that special forces units entered the complex to reach Hamas terrorists.
