Multiple people inside Kamal Adwan Hospital or in its vicinity have been using their phones to document robots planting explosives near Kamal Adwan Hospital, Hani Mahmoud of Al Jazeera reports.

“One video presented to us shows robots in the vicinity of the hospital leaving behind an explosive device. We were told by the person who filmed that video that there were at least four other robots in the vicinity of the hospital,” the reporter said.

The reporter added that the sheer level of destruction is consistent with the footage presented to them, with the fact that the Israeli military has been using these devices to blow up many of the buildings in the vicinity of the hospital.

“Many of the essential departments inside the hospital have been rendered non-operational — because everyone is trying to stay alive and protected from all the shrapnel and bullets shot by the quadcopters or fired by the military that are piercing through the walls,” the reporter added.
