was fired by islamichhad from a nearby cemetery. it was at the time that 6:59pm when there were reports of an explosion at the ali al madani hospital in gaza city. according to our intelligence, hamas checked the reports, understood it was an islamichhad rocket that had misfired and decided to launch a global media campaign to hide what really happened. they went as far as inflating the numbers of casualties. they understood with absolute certainty that it was a rocket misfired by islamichhad that damaged the hospital. analysis of our aerial footage confirms that there was no direct hit to the hospital itself. the only location damage is outside the hospital in the parking lot where we can see signs of burning, which i will show later. no cratering and no structural damage to nearby buildings as opposed to the damage caused by any aerial munition which would have been of different nature. we would have seen craters and structural and structural damage to the buildings, both o ....
