Israel and militants blame each other for an explosion at a hospital compound in Gaza that Palestinian officials say killed hundreds shortly before President Biden's visit to Israel.
Photos and videos taken at the site of the explosion at a hospital compound in Gaza show a shallow crater that some open-source intelligence analysts say is inconsistent with the damage an airstrike would cause. They said the images show what appears to be a relatively small explosion, with charred cars and a few dozen bodies sprawled on a nearby lawn. The surrounding buildings, including a church, didn’t appear to have suffered major damage.
“We have none of the indicators of an airstrike—none,” said Michael Knights, an expert on security and military issues at the Washington Institute for Near East Policy. “What you have instead is a scene that very clearly was hit by a rolling fireball.” The most plausible cause for that, Knights said, is rocket fuel, consistent with the Israeli military’s explanation that a rocket misfired. Knights said images from the scene of the blast don’t support the claim that hundreds of people died.
