Getting your death count from a terrorist organization known for lying and inflating numbers is ridiculous.
When Hamas hide and build a shitload of terrorist infrastructure in civilian areas, you evidently get a lot of leveling happening, destroying that terrorist infrastructure.
Israel does more than any other country to minimize civilian deaths. But I'm sure you know about Hamas using civilians as human shields and outright shooting Gaza civilians trying to get away from the area

The health ministry is a medical organization, regardless of being under Hamas rule.
Just like Shifa Hospital isn't used as a terrorist base.
Terrorists threaten and infilitrate even legitimate organizations in a corrupt government
For the number of times this specific hospital is used as justification you'd think they would have produced actual evidence for that claim by now.
They have: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/nov/16/idf-says-hamas-hiding-evidence-of-use-of-shifa-hospital-as-command-centre
Despite the raid ~24 hours ago, and the release, deletion and then re-release of an "uncut" video of the hospital since then, this absolutely remains to be proven. If anything the burden of proof has gone up, after the absolute bullshit they just published about it and about Rantisi hospital.
Also it's "Al Shifa", as in, "The Healing".

Not sure if you're posting this as support of IDF claims. The videos they've released have been absolutely ridiculous, show multiple signs of planted evidence (e.g. the same scene completely changing when shown to different news outlets) and do not support the assertion of a sophisticated underground command center.
