Title: Failed Rocket Launch by Islamic Jihad Causes Hospital Explosion in Gaza City, Confirms News 12 Documentation
Date: Wednesday
News 12 cameras placed in the city of Nativ have provided dramatic documentation proving that the explosion at Al-Mamadani Hospital in the heart of Gaza City was caused by a failed rocket launch by the Islamic Jihad, as reported for the first time today.
According to the footage, multiple rockets were launched from the Gaza Strip towards Israeli settlements at 18:59. One of the rockets, however, failed to launch properly and fell on the hospital in Gaza, leading to the devastating explosion.
This documentation adds to a series of proofs recently published by the IDF (Israel Defense Forces). Brigadier General Daniel Hagari, the IDF spokesman, presented a conversation during a press conference between Hamas operatives discussing the failed rocket launch by the Islamic Jihad. “The fragments of the rocket are locally produced fragments, and not shrapnel from an (Israeli) missile,” stated one of the operatives, while the other added, “Probably they launched it from the cemetery behind the al-Mamadani hospital.” Additionally, a radar image was released, which identified the jihad launches near the hospital, providing further evidence that this was not an air force attack.
In an important development, US President Biden, during a statement alongside Netanyahu, emphasized that Israel was not responsible for the hospital explosion in Gaza City. “We need to remember that the monster (Hamas) does not represent the Palestinian people, and they are also suffering. I am very concerned about the attack on the hospital in Gaza, and from what I have seen, you (Israel) did not do it. But many in the world are not sure of that, so there is still a lot of work to be done,” said Biden.
The British Foreign Minister, James Calverley, also cautioned against jumping to conclusions. In a statement, he wrote, “Too many people jumped to conclusions last night. It could cost lives. Be careful with the facts.”
As investigations continue, it is crucial to ensure that the truth behind the hospital explosion in Gaza City is established and that facts are valued over assumptions.
