The IDF revealed on Friday, what it described as intelligence showing a Hamas command center located under a the Shifa Hospital in Gaza City. In a briefing, Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari told members of the foreign press corps that there are areas in the hospitals that are used by Hamas to direct its military operations.

    Yea, it’s an illustration of nothing real. Like Hamas doesn’t even have cement, what’s depicted in the video is as close to real life as if they had just shown a Doom level. What is the point of illustrating your imagination of what’s there?

        The import of cement is heavily restricted by Israel since like 20 years ago, yea.

            You think Hamas has enough limestone mines and kilns to make a punker fully out of concrete under like every hospital and no one has found those facilities while they have found concrete bunkers all over Gaza without even going there?

            Also good luck making cement in an oven, cooking ovens don’t even have the fraction of required heat.

                There aren’t enough shells in the whole middle east, let alone Gaza to make the required amount of cement.

                  It depends on what they are actually doing with the cement.

                  Most of the tunnels in the news seem to be using regular building materials which is likely stripped from older homes or never makes it to new homes

                    You just reduced the required amount of shells to maybe just the whole of the middle east and even that is questionable. Hamas has access to enough beach to fix some cracks and maybe even piece together one wall out of very large pieces of a building that fit together very well over 20 years but not much else. The amount of seashells you need for a decent amount of cement is colossal, for anything serious you need a limestone mine.

                    Not to mention the facilities to produce the cement that would give off massive amounts of heat and smoke.
