CNN does not rule out the possibility that the Israeli army will rearrange the weapons in Al-Shifa Hospital

An analysis by the American news network CNN showed the possibility of the Israeli army rearranging weapons before the media visit to Al-Shifa Hospital in Gaza.


The network published on its website in Arabic, on Saturday evening, a report entitled “A CNN analysis indicates the possibility that the Israeli army will rearrange weapons before the media visit to Al-Shifa Hospital.”


She said: “An Israeli army video clip on November 15 showed the moment of inspection of Hamas weapons that were found in Al-Shifa Hospital, as fewer weapons appeared at the scene compared to later videos filmed by international media crews, indicating that the weapons may have been transferred.” Or put it there before the news crews arrive.”


In this regard, CNN stated that it “compared the footage published by the Israeli army online with the footage taken by Fox News, which was granted access to the site in the following hours.”


“Israel Defense Forces spokesman Jonathan Conricus was leading the tour in the IDF video when his wristwatch showed the time 13:18,” she said.


She added: “Later, when darkness fell, Fox News foreign correspondent Trey Yingst visited the scene and said in his report: ‘It is midnight.’”

She continued: “Yingst showed a bag located behind the MRI machine inside the hospital, where two Kalashnikov rifles appeared on top of it.”

She added: “However, the Israeli army video clip that was filmed earlier showed only one AK-47 “Kalashnikov” rifle, and it is not clear where the second AK-47 weapon came from and why it did not appear in the previous Israeli army clip ?


She said: “In the intervening hours, the Israeli army also published on the Internet a photo of the weapons that were allegedly found in Al-Shifa Hospital. The name of the photo (WhatsApp file) indicates that it was taken at 17:35, which places it after the IDF’s tour of the MRI complex but almost certainly before the Fox News crew arrived.”


She added: “It is possible that the weapons will be removed from the scene and replaced before news crews arrive.” But this does not explain why more weapons appeared when the press arrived than in the original IDF video.”


She continued: “The BBC (British Broadcasting Corporation) was also granted access to the hospital the next day, November 16, and at that time there were still two AK-47 rifles visible on top of the bag inside the MRI room.”


She added: “CNN contacted the Israeli army to obtain clarifications regarding the apparent contradiction, but did not receive a response.”

The Israeli army had used these weapons to justify the storming of the hospital and thus claim that “Hamas” used the hospital as its headquarters.
