Israel is claiming that some rockets launched by Hamas towards Israel went off course and hit the hospital.

I remember Russia staging a "Ukrainian missle attack", but they were so bad at it that the damage was on the side of buildings facing away from Ukraine. Should be pretty easy to check that here too...

The rockets Hamas fires can barely punch a hole in a wall, and this explosion basically leveled the whole hospital. It's just a ridiculous claim.

The scale of boom the IDF is dropping is an order of magnitude larger than Hamas missiles.

It's insane to think that one (or even more than one) missile could destroy a hospital.

Did you see the OH bombing aftermath? Low explosives can still pack a hefty punch, and the hospital is by no means "destroyed".
