The Hamas-run Health Ministry in the Gaza Strip says at least 500 people have been killed in an explosion that it says was caused by an Israeli airstrike.
Updated: Israel denies involvement in deadly Gaza hospital blast, says explosion caused by Islamic Jihad
First of all, even USA has independently confirmed this is not Israel’s fault. Whether you believe them or not, is kind of pointless. But 500 people there were not. It’s a parking lot with 7 cars destroyed. If there were 500 people jammed there scenery would look entirely different. And am not saying there are no injured, but that number of 500 was pulled out of the ass at the moments notice to point a finger at Israel as soon as possible. Hamas loves doing that and they’ve done it in the past.
The “precise” number that’s been circulating is 471. People have been taking shelter at hospitals all over the Gaza Strip due to the air bombardment and evacuation order. So a whole lot of people in/around a hospital courtyard here, not that unreasonable. Shoulder to shoulder, that’s about a square of 22 x 22 people, a crowd of people.
Of course they will do that, while for the past days requesting evacuation of the same hospital and suddenly today it’s a misfire?
Did you see the impact? It burned 7 cars. If that caused 500 casualties, I’ll eat my own underwear.
I saw this impact are you doubting that could kill 500 people?
Yes. You need to Google and see just how big of a surface 500 people takes and how densely they would have to be for this explosion to kill them.
No google needed. My hobby is to do this
Plus there’s video of the aftermath. I’ve seen it. But, you think none of those people whipped out their phones?

The U.S. is independent from Israel in about the same way China is independent from North Korea. “Confirmation” isn’t worth a cent, we need proof.
Yeah, better trust Hamas which made the statement 1h after the blast. Fast counting that is.
