Israeli Army Radio said that army units took control of the complex and arrested dozens. The occupation army also admitted that one of its soldiers was killed during the attack.
During its raid, the Israeli army arrested Al Jazeera correspondent Ismail al-Ghoul and a number of his fellow journalists from inside the Shifa complex. The Palestinian Ministry of Health in Gaza confirmed that it was not possible to rescue any of the injured in the Al-Shifa Complex, due to the intensity of the fire and the targeting of anyone who approached the windows.
