Before we delve into the technical details, who do you trust more: Hamas, who knew exactly what happened and who was to blame less than a minute after the explosion, or Israel, which took several hours of fact-checking to clarify that the explosion was caused by Hamas?

Now let's look at some details. First, the picture of the hospital building. Does this look like a place that could hold thousands of people and where 500 people (or even 1,000 according to some versions) could be injured? To me, it looks more like a regional clinic.
3/15
This is a picture of the hospital from this morning. Let's look at the extent of the damage. All the buildings around the parking lot are intact, even the shed remained intact. Does it seem to you that there was an explosion here that could cause hundreds of casualties?
4/15
Let's look at the nature of the damage. When a bomb falls, a crater always forms at the point of impact. There is no crater here and we don't even see significant blast damage. What we see here is that something fell that caused a fire.

A minute before the hit, Hamas announced the launch of a heavy rocket towards Haifa. No rocket fell in Haifa, but miraculously a minute after the launch, an explosion occurred at the hospital. I hope you remember from first grade that 1+1=2

Fortunately we don’t have to rely on estimates. The live broadcast from Al Jazeera provides an accurate documentation of the strike on the hospital. It clearly shows the missiles being fired towards Israel, and one of the rockets exploding and causing a blast in the hospital

Here is similar footage from security cameras in the Israeli village 'Nahal Oz' near Gaza
8/15
We don't even need to analyze videos. Here is a recording of a conversation between two terrorists intercepted by Israeli intelligence services. They tell the story excellently
9/15
Conclusions:
1. Never rush to believe Hamas, make sure to hear the other side, judge reality for yourselves, stick to facts and not narratives
10/15
Not only do the damage photos prove that it’s unlikely hundreds of people died, but no photo was published indicating a mass casualty event. Hamas always publishes a photo of every casualty. So, where are the photos of hundreds of deaths?
11/15
Even if there are future incidents where Israel accidentally harms civilians, it’s important to remember that Hamas inflates the number of casualties out of proportion in order to blame Israel and divert attention from the massacre it carried out
12/15
Most of the media accepted Hamas's version without question and immediately blamed Israel, the role of the media is to ask questions, not to automatically accept the strange narrative of one side, remember their bias in the future.
13/15
Please note, Israel cares about the innocent people in Gaza far more than Hamas does. Hamas wants as many Palestinian children to die as possible in order to blame Israel!

In this case, it is undoubtedly clear that the explosion was caused by Hamas, but even if it was caused by Israel, before you draw conclusions, you must read the following thread
1/8 'While it's true that the horrific acts of beheadings and rape were committed by a few extremists from Hamas, it's important to note that most residents of Gaza disapprove of such actions'
But is this the whole picture? Let's delve into the numbers:
>>
2/8 According to the CIA Factbook, as of 2023, the Gaza Strip is home to 2,098,389 individuals, with a median age of 18. This implies that there are approximately 524,597 males over the age of 18 residing in the Gaza Strip.
>>
3/8 The IDF estimates that about 3,000 Hamas militants were involved in the planned massacre on July 10th, with thousands more civilians independently participating in the event.
A few words about the number of innocents who died in Gaza:
The Palestinian Ministry of Health claims that 3,478 were killed in Gaza, And according to him half of them are innocents, but who killed them?
1/6
According to Hamas, 471 Palestinians were killed in an explosion at a hospital that we know for certain was caused by a Hamas rocket. Yet, the Palestinian Ministry of Health includes them in the count of those allegedly killed by Israel
2/6
According to the IDF's radar system, about 450 out of 7,114 rockets launched by Hamas fell within the Strip's territory. In this map, you can see that they fell and exploded all over the Gaza Strip.
