Original Note:
The cause of the hospital explosion is contested. Multiple investigations support the idea that it’s origin was from an errant Gazan rocket: https://amp.cnn.com/cnn/2023/10/21/middleeast/cnn-investigates-forensic-analysis-gaza-hospital-blast/index.html https://apnews.com/article/israel-palestinians-hamas-war-hospital-rocket-gaza-e0fa550faa4678f024797b72132452e3 https://www.wsj.com/video/video-analysis-shows-gaza-hospital-hit-by-failed-rocket-meant-for-israel/120A1C22-BA32-418E-8837-BC4141FEFB00.html Whereas others challenge that narrative: https://www.nytimes.com/2023/10/24/world/middleeast/gaza-hospital-israel-hamas-video.html https://www.channel4.com/news/human-rights-investigators-raise-new-questions-on-gaza-hospital-explosion The issue hasn’t been concluded either way.
