Pope Francis needs additional hospital care this week after being admitted for bronchitis, the Vatican’s press office said Monday.

“Hamas hides in hospitals. Today, we will expose this to the world,” IDF Spokesman Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari said during a nightly press conference.

Speaking in English, Hagari presented evidence showing Hamas weapons being stored underneath Rantisi children’s hospital in Gaza, as well as rooms seemingly used to hold hostages. One room staged to look like a living room featured window curtains covering a tiled wall and a calendar of guard shifts starting on October 7, the day Hamas sent thousands of terrorists into Israel, where they slaughtered some 1,200 people and took another approximately 240 people hostage.
