In a statement on Instagram on Monday, the clinic said: “Today we published the first names of the newborns on our obstetrics channel – as we do every day,” it said. “One of the names is currently in a political context, which has caused irritation or incomprehension among some users.” 

The hospital stated that internal procedures would be reviewed to ensure greater sensitivity in handling similar cases in the future.

Sinwar was martyred by zionist israeli soldiers in southern Gaza last October, nearly a year after Israel launched its war against Hamas.
