Archbishop says Israel warned Gaza hospital three days in a row.

In a press conference, Anglican Archbishop in Jerusalem, Hosam Naoum, said the al-Ahli al-Arabi Baptist Hospital in Gaza was warned on Saturday, Sunday and Monday by the Israeli army to evacuate. It was then bombed on Tuesday.

pingveno,

Oh wow. They’re really trying to shove words in his mouth. He confirmed the facts he knew to be true, then whoever is asking the questions is trying to put together a narrative.

Dreamer,

I am going to use this thread to share a plethora of related links that should share insight on the nature of this conflict.

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.

Several experts confirm Hamas’ view to @Channel4News that the audio tape of “Hamas” operatives talking about the missile malfunction is a fake . They say the tone, syntax, accent and idiom are absurd

It’s not a guided bomb though guys, trust me bro it’s a misfired rocket. Don’t think about how large of a rocket that would have to be to cause that level of damage, just trust me bro. Don’t compare the audios of the two videos above, just trust me bro.

deconstruct,

Gray zone is disinfo. Are we using such biased sources in the megathread?

CollisionResistance,

Hananya Naftali proudly boasted that Israel bombed Gaza’s ah-Ahli hospital before deleting and two minutes later lying that Hamas did it. He works directly under Netanyahu.

It’s insane how evil these people are.

ziggurter,

Community note has since been removed, of course.

zerfuffle,

The sound made by the projectile that hit the hospital doesn’t sound like a misfired missile to me… It sounds a lot more like the other guided munitions we’ve been hearing getting dropped.

CollisionResistance,
zerfuffle,

Yes but see, clearly Hamas is everywhere and that clearly justifies the civilian casualties. Clearly.

masquenox,

If you see a picture of a Palestinian child without a Hamas terrorist hiding behind them it simply proves how sneaky they are!
