On 17 October 2023, a devastating explosion took place in the car park of the al-Ahli Hospital in Gaza City. The Gaza Health Ministry reported that 471 people were killed and 342 injured, with US intelligence agencies estimating between 100 and 300 casualties.

The trajectory shows the missile was launched from outside Gaza, near to a known Israeli missile launch site that is part of its ‘Iron Dome’ air defence system. The shape of the missile’s trajectory, turning twice in mid-air, again suggests that this is a guided Israeli interceptor, rather than a Palestinian rocket which would follow the arc of a ballistic trajectory.

    So many people on lemmy and reddit lambasted ignorant social media posts for not waiting until the facts came out, only to repeat false IDF claims like it’s the gospel.

    Where are those IDF shills now?

    Interesting. Especially the fact that rockets burn all their fuel in a small period at launch. Thus if it was shot out of the air so high it could not have had the claimed fuel left.

    Here is another report from Forensic Architecture, from late February:

    An Assessment of Visual Material Presented by the Israeli Legal Team at the International Court of Justice (ICJ)

    Findings

    We found eight instances where the Israeli legal team misrepresented the visual evidence they cited, through a combination of incorrect annotations and labelling, and misleading verbal descriptions. These instances are presented and explained in this report.

    Our study also reveals that the Israeli legal team presented single instances of alleged Palestinian military use of civilian infrastructure as blanket justifications for the systematic and widespread attacks on civilians, shelters, schools, and hospitals.
