    What a wild way to phrase “Prime Minister looks to Canada’s own intelligence agencies for confirmation of events, rather than another country’s”

    As if he is “disagreeing” with the US’s findings, lol

      I mean that’s all news at this point. Desperate for a click. All of the news outlets are basically just clickheads at this point feening for the next hit.

      Edit: Considering the description of the aftermath I’m having a hard time believing it’s an airstrike anyway.

    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said Thursday that Canadian officials are still reviewing evidence about the Gaza hospital blast that killed and maimed many Palestinian civilians and he’s not prepared to say who’s responsible.

    “We are working closely with allies to determine exactly what happened,” Trudeau told a press conference with Caribbean leaders in Ottawa when asked if he accepted the Israeli version of events that has since been endorsed by the U.S. government.

    “We saw some preliminary evidence but we’ll keep working with our allies as quickly as possible before reaching any firm and final conclusion,” Trudeau said in French, adding that many communities here in Canada are “personally affected in an intensive way by what happened over there.”

    During a wartime visit to Israel on Wednesday, Biden said the U.S. defence department showed him intelligence that suggests the explosion at the Ahli Arab Hospital likely was not caused by an Israeli airstrike.

    Conservative MP Michael Chong, the party’s foreign affairs critic, said in question period he wanted to “give the government the opportunity to correct and clarify the record” on who was responsible for the deadly blast.

    Images gathered by BBC News, the Associated Press and Reuters show that the hospital is still standing after the blast but there are blown-out windows, a small crater in the pavement near the site and burned-out vehicles and overturned cars nearby.
