#I do also want to reiterate that I am devastated about the loss of civilian life regardless of how it happened
[i wanted to give u a heads up that this is about palestine & israel but i wasnt sure how to content warn so i'm just putting this here]
hey,
just so you know some of the facts your sharing about who is responsible for various bombings i dont think is correct - the only original source that ive seen that stated that the hospital was bombed by hamas / islamic jihad was the idf who obviously have a pretty strong incentive to seperate themselves from that kind of awful violence. there has been a concerted focus on attacking healthcare centres/ providers, from what i saw on the guardian website recently there have been 50 or so attacks on healthcare facilities in gaza. which is rly such an appalling figure to even begin to contemplate. if you're looking for good sources to stay up to date with the conflict [which is obviously very overwhelming & quickly developing] then i'd rly recommend jewish currents or aljazeera & vashti media tends to have some useful coverage too, altho they arent a moment to moment media platform.
Hey so I definitely appreciate you reaching out, because I do strive to get these things right. However, I literally am going off of footage taken by Al Jazeera, as well as a statement by gaza_report:
Trust me, I'm aware that the IDF has an incentive to pass blame, so I waited to say anything until I saw evidence from explicitly pro-Palestinian sources.
If, in the fullness of time, there is good evidence against it that I can verify myself (like with this footage) I will gladly issue a correction. Please do reach out again if that is the case, because I do not want to platform misinformation if at all possible.
Thanks again!
Edit: if you have multiple cross-bias sources on the other healthcare facility bombings, I would appreciate the information for further investigation.
