Israeli military says it found signs hostages were held in Gaza hospital

This is the best summary I could come up with:

JERUSALEM, Nov 13 (Reuters) - The Israeli military shared video and photographs on Monday showing what it said were weapons stored by Hamas in the basement of a children's hospital in Gaza where it also said hostages appear to have been held.

Military spokesperson Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari said troops had found a command centre with an armoury of weapons including grenades, suicide vests and other explosives stored by Hamas fighters in the basement of Rantissi Hospital, a paediatric hospital with a specialty in treating cancer patients.

"And we also found signs that indicate that Hamas held hostages here," he told a televised briefing.

He showed footage of what appeared to be rudimentary living quarters, including a small kitchen, as well as a nearby tunnel shaft which he said led to the house of a senior Hamas naval commander.

In addition, troops found a motorcycle with gunshot marks which he said appeared to have been used to bring hostages to Gaza after the surprise attack on Oct. 7 when Hamas gunmen stormed into southern Israel, killing some 1,200 people and seizing around 240 captives, according to Israeli authorities.

In retaliation, Israel has launched an intense bombardment of the Gaza Strip and followed up with a ground operation that has seen troops push deep into the enclave.

Is there propaganda in war? Are they still keeping away news organization and shooting journalists that can verify their bullshit? Yes? Then fuck all this, I'll believe it when someone else confirms it.
- Yes, not only exists but it’s vital.
  This is how the fifth column thrives. User history explains a lot.
Your account is usually seen to be against totalitarians and the governments they praise but here it's suddenly spreading the talking points of the far right regime in Israel
- In what way?
