This is the best summary I could come up with:
On Wednesday, members of the Israeli military, its border police, and its security service Shin Bet staged a raid on the Ibn Sina hospital in the city of Jenin in the northern West Bank.
Israeli personnel — all wearing disguises, such as hospital scrubs or a white doctor’s coat, and caught on closed-circuit video — shot and killed three Palestinian men.
Certainly the U.S. would be perturbed if, during the Iraq War, Iraqis dressed as doctors and nurses snuck into Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in Washington, D.C., and killed several American soldiers.
Israel would likewise object if Palestinians gained access to a Tel Aviv hospital by wearing medical costumes and then assassinated Israeli soldiers.
Aurel Sari, an associate professor of public international law at the University of Exeter and a fellow at the Supreme Headquarters Allied Powers Europe, agrees.
Sari states that the general legal protection for medical facilities does not apply in this case, because “the Israeli operation was not directed against the Ibn Sina hospital,” just the three militants.
