    In the recording one man says : “They say the rocket is from Jihadist” then the other one asked : “who says?” Then the other persob replies: “They say its local sharpnel not like the ones from Israeli rockets”

    My point is: none of these people in the recording know anything for a fact. they are just telling what they have heard.

    Oh my God, are we really using ‘slams’ even in reporting on major wars now?

    Stop the planet, I want to get off.

    10-minute video captured by AJArabic around the time the al-Ahli hospital was hit.

    As per @Ted55643099:

    Explosions on this video: (0:19) hospital. (0:16, 4:25, 4:49) behind and to the left of the hospital. (5:33, 5:56, 9:26, 10:46) behind hospital, most likely the same place. (9:38, 10:51) to the right of the hospital outside of the frame, likely the same place.

    The firey blast is from spent rocket fuel. Bombs don’t react like that. This was 100% a hamas rocket.

      Could be from the petroleum from the cars. It looks like the missile hit right outside the parking lot. Most of the cars are burned through too.

      Though I am not seeing images of a crater, and it looks like the hospital is still standing. If it was an airstrike, I would imagine there would be more physical damage. But that is just speculation of a air strike bombing run. I feel like there should be more rubble.

      They went as far as to inflate the number of casualties,” he said.

      Estimates given in a time of panic. But only a 200 casualty rate is fine. 201 and we’d have to send you off to the gulag.

    This after Israel previously claimed responsibility for the bombing? Sure. Totally believable.
