AP and Reuters have run with the initial claims coming from Hamas that the hospital was struck by an Israeli airstrike. This article disputes that.

    I certainly don’t trust Israel but I would also not put it past Hamas and IJ to use a rocket launch site at or near a hospital for cover.

      And then you think the reasonable response is to blow up a hospital?

        Under the rules warfare. Yes.

        Don’t use protected sites to avoid a response.

        Hamas has a history of using ambulances to move troops and ammo around.
