Nov 12 (Reuters) - Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Sunday that Israel had offered fuel to Gaza’s Al Shifa hospital, which suspended operations after running out of fuel, but that the militants had refused to receive it.
Netanyahu was asked by NBC News whether Israeli allegations that Hamas had a command post under Gaza’s main hospital justified jeopardizing the lives of sick people and babies.
Israel’s military said it was ready to evacuate babies from Al Shifa on Sunday, but Palestinian officials said people inside were still trapped, with three newborns dead and dozens at risk from a power outage.
Netanyahu was asked if Israel has a plan to get fuel into Gaza to power hospitals.
“We just offered Shifa hospital the fuel, they refused it,” Netanyahu said.
Hamas denies Israeli allegations it has command posts under Shifa and other Gaza hospitals.
