    Hamas says it was IDF, IDF says it ways the Islamic Jihad.

    What’s certain is that this whole situation is FUBAR.

    US President Joe Biden will once again emphasise Israel’s “right and duty” to defend itself.

    There’s a pretty good chance this was an own goal.

    Posting this before it’s clear what caused this is borderline misinformation.

    EDIT: this compounds the existing lack of medical supplies and equipment, already stretched extra thin after Hamas stole truckloads of fuel and medical supplies from the UN earlier this week.

      Bombing a hospital is half a step behind carpet bombing the whole place. Did not expect it to escalate like this, so I second the motion to get verification

        So how did this independent investigation should work exactly, when all the border crossings are closed?

        Oh wait Palestinians also don’t have access to water, fuel or electricity, they cannot escape to a neighbouring country, they are told to go south, and then bombed even there. But of course none of this is considered a war crime because Israel has the right to defend themselves and apparently the right to designate what amounts to a war crime too.

        Israel claims an Islamic Jihad rocket misfired and hit a hidden ammo dump in or near the hospital.

        Update:

        IDF: An analysis of IDF operational systems indicates that a barrage of rockets was fired by terrorists in Gaza, passing in close proximity to the Al Ahli hospital in Gaza at the time it was hit.

        Intelligence from multiple sources we have in our hands indicates that Islamic Jihad is responsible for the failed rocket launch which hit the hospital in Gaza.

          Of course, what do you expect them to do, admit their own fuck up. This would end up the same as the unfortunate killings of a bunch of journalists and their “independent” investigation of the killings. And it happens that all those journalists were critical of Israel’s policies. Quite the coincidence, right?

          And likewise, Hamas claims this was an Israeli airstrike. That’s why independent verification is so critical.

            Videos published by various sources, alleged to show the Islamic Jihad rocket that hit the hospital:

              • The first video shows multiple rockets and an explosion
              • The second video shows one with no explosion
              • The third shows one with an explosion in the air first

              None of these videos line up with each other, so at least two of them must be irrelevant if not all three.

              Meanwhile, the closest video shows an incoming whistle: https://twitter.com/i/status/1714366113818038412

      I’ve heard this somewhere before… When a Ukrainian building got blown up recently.

      OH IT WAS PROBABLY THEIR OWN.

      Or maybe they’re just being bombed all the time?

      You realise that more bombs have been dropped in Gaza this last week than an entire year of the war in Afghanistan?

        I’m saying wait a few hours at least, maybe a day. If it was rockets Israel will jump to publish video showing it.

        You realise that more bombs have been dropped in Gaza this last week than an entire year of the war in Afghanistan?

        We’re in a thread about an AJ article so let’s base it on the same source: 7423 in all of 2019.

        https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2020/1/29/record-7423-us-bombs-dropped-in-afghanistan-in-2019-report

        And only 6000 in the last week:

        https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2023/10/13/when-a-family-dies-under-israels-bombs-part-of-gazas-history-disappears

        So not yet, but it is a lot of bombs.

          Beautiful cherry picking. “Only” lmao.

          I’m sorry the Israelis aren’t overtaking the record-breaking years but they’re still dropping more than the bombs dropped in Afghanistan most years. In a week.

A community for discussing events around the World

Rules:

  • Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:

    • Post news articles only
    • Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
    • Title must match the article headline
    • Not United States Internal News
    • Recent (Past 30 Days)
    • Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
  • Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think “Is this fair use?”, it probably isn’t. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.

  • Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.

  • Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.

  • Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19

  • Rule 5: Keep it civil. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.

Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to “Mom! He’s bugging me!” and “I’m not touching you!” Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

  • Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.

  • Rule 7: We didn’t USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you’re posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
