"Never" is incorrect. Not legitimate targets "unless they are used to commit, outside their humanitarian duties, acts harmful to the enemy."https://twitter.com/asteris/status/836939851194896387 …
word "enemy" is n/a to hospitals. If a state is accusing medical personnel as combatants, they have to offer conclusive proof

wrong again. Advance warning is required. No proof.

like that ever happens http://bit.ly/1QZiGZq

well that's a different question, but again it's not a "never" thing. Israel has issued such warnings, for one.

or not http://www.nbcnews.com/storyline/middle-east-unrest/another-gaza-hospital-hit-israeli-strike-four-dead-40-hurt-n161086 … Israel's notion of what constitutes a legit target during the Gaza wars is still contentious
-
that article never denies that warnings were issued, and they were issued http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/middleeast/palestinianauthority/10970795/Gaza-hospital-defies-Israel-evacuation-warning-amid-fears-for-frail-patients.html ….

"examples of acts harmful to the enemy include the use of medical units...to store arms or munitions" https://ihl-databases.icrc.org/customary-ihl/eng/docs/v1_rul_rule28 …
-
matter of conjecture by the aggressor. And given that no independent inquiries are ever allowed, there's no accountability.
-
yeah that is how international humanitarian law works. Wars don't function on courtroom evidence.
