A quote from Israeli Channel 14’s army and defense correspondent confirms the arrests: “Fighters of the Saber Battalion of the Givati Brigade operated in the terrorist house Kamal Adwan in the north of the Gaza Strip, and pulled out from there terrorists … and other Hamas officials. During the battles, the fighters killed dozens of terrorists.”

"Israeli forces forced displaced male individuals to remove their clothing and arrested some. They gathered and detained medical personnel in one room and called a number of these staff, including the hospital director, Dr. Hussam Abu Safia, to where the Israeli forces were located in the hospital courtyard. All of these individuals are currently unaccounted for after losing contact with them.The Ministry of Health demands that international organizations urgently intervene to protect the medical personnel and patients present there without water, food, or medical services."
