    If they believe 500 were killed in an Israeli strike on a hospital in Gaza they must fail the class immediately xD

        I’m talking about the Al-Alhi hospital. Hamas terrorists claimed 500 people died around 10 minutes after the explosion took place in the parking lot. Meanwhile, Israel is still identifying bodies from the October 7th terror attacks.

          hospitals do have lists of patients and staff though… and they’re usually centralised… so it’s pretty easy to tally up a rough estimate for who was in a hospital at a given time

          sure, hamas is full of shit: they lie about loads of things… but having quick numbers for who died when a hospital was destroyed is far from unlikely… let’s make sure we accuse people of the right things and not make the disinformation worse aye?

            The hospital was not destroyed. The failed missile strike landed in the courtyard, and analysts currently view it as a Hamas misfire.

            So yes, let’s not make disinformation worse.

          Hamas terrorists claimed 500 people died around 10 minutes after the explosion took place in the parking lot

          That ‘claim’ turned out to have been invented by the media, possibly due to language issues. There was an article a while back about how there’s no actual source for the claims that doesn’t go in a circle.

      It’s actually insane how you are getting downvoted when the Hamas’ claim is already debunked as being in fact fake news.

      Isreal is doing a lot of bad shit, and has been for a long time. But this particular bombing never happened as described by Hamas.

        Perhaps it’s because an explosion at a hospital, no matter the cause, isn’t really something to “xD” about.

          It’s not irrelevant, because this place has a lot of people who believe complete bullshit.

        You are refering to western media inventing that claim from a post actually talking about probably up to 500 casualties (dead or injured), aren’t you?

        If not… here’s your chance to not fail the class: show any actual source for that claim that isn’t media themselves refering to “we haerd someone said”.

      Yes, the same for claims that Israel didn’t murder more than ten thousand civilians on a disproportionate response (like a certain world leader did before having to stick his feet into his mouth). Focusing on one instance of disinformation to create a smokescreen for war crimes is disingenuous at best.
