        Another highlight for the “most important” lines:

        The claims were remarkably specific — that five hospital buildings were directly involved in Hamas activities; that the buildings sat atop underground tunnels that were used by militants to direct rocket attacks and command fighters; and that the tunnels could be accessed from inside hospital wards. The assertions were backed by “concrete evidence,” Israel Defense Forces spokesman Daniel Hagari said as he laid out the case in an Oct. 27 briefing.

        The Post’s analysis shows:

        • The rooms connected to the tunnel network discovered by IDF troops showed no immediate evidence of military use by Hamas.
        • None of the five hospital buildings identified by Hagari appeared to be connected to the tunnel network.
        • There is no evidence that the tunnels could be accessed from inside hospital wards.

      Even if enemy combatants were truly hiding in the hospitals: you don’t just drop bombs on it. You go in with ground forces and secure it while minimizing civilian casualties.
