The IDF announced that the initial investigation into the explosion at the Ahli Baptist Hospital in central Gaza where Hamas claims as many as 500 people were killed was caused by a Hamas rocket that was misfired and struck the hospital and not by an Israeli airstrike.

The IDF statement says that “an analysis of IDF operational systems indicates that a barrage of rockets was fired by terrorists in Gaza, passing in close proximity to the Al Ahli hospital in Gaza at the time it was hit."

"Intelligence from multiple sources we have in our hands indicates that Islamic Jihad is responsible for the failed rocket launch which hit the hospital in Gaza," the statement added.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu commented on the explosion at the hospital in Gaza and wrote, "The entire world should know: The barbaric terrorists in Gaza are the ones who attacked the hospital in Gaza, not the IDF."

"Those who brutally murdered our children, also murder their children."

Minister Benny Gantz wrote, "The missiles of The Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) murdered this evening innocent Palestinians in a hospital in Gaza. The elimination of terror organizations Hamas and the PIJ is a moral necessity for Israelis, for Palestinians and for the whole world."

Utilizing previously used water pipe for rocket bodies can cause grievous misfortune.

It was my first thought on hearing the news. The only question was inadvertent or purposeful.

Whoops. Euros call this “own goal”.

If Hamas would not be launching thousands of rockets at Israel, then this would not happen.

Things will be mighty difficult for Let’s go Brandon when he gets off the plane tomorrow. And the nearby Arabs sure will not want to see him afterward.

This is the time for Jihad Protests Everywhere. Stay safe.

Hamas and the Palestinians are to the Israelis as are the blacks in the blue cities are to the rest of the US.

I’ll never forget the night the destroyer, just off-shore, was firing into the hills way beyond us, but passing over our position, and I first lerned the term, “shortfall.”

It was a long night.

This link is from a different thread.

Back in WWII when our torpedoes did this it was called a “circular shot.”

This is why 60% of Gazans should not have voted for Hamas to be their government!
