Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said on Sunday it is enabling a passage from the Shifa, Rantisi and Nasser hospitals in the Gaza Strip amid Palestinian reports of Israeli bombing of the facilities.

"IDF soldiers opened and secured a passage which enables the civilian population to evacuate, on foot and by ambulances, from the Shifa, Rantisi and Nasser hospitals," the IDF said on social media platform X.

It also accused Hamas of using civilian structures in the Gaza Strip, including hospitals, for its "terrorist activity."
