Gaza Hospital Explosion Likely Caused by Misfired Palestinian Rocket, Says Human Rights Watch

Findings contradict initial reports blaming Israel, call into question Gaza Health Ministry's casualty count.

Human Rights Watch (HRW) has concluded that the deadly explosion at Gaza's Al-Ahli Hospital last month was likely caused by a misfired rocket, commonly used by Palestinian terror groups.
HRW's findings contradict initial reports blaming Israel for the strike, and support the White House's earlier statement that U.S. intelligence showed Israel was not responsible.
The Gaza Health Ministry's claim of 471 casualties has been disputed by HRW, which suggests the number is significantly higher than other estimates and appears out of proportion with the visible damage.
HRW's investigation was based on a review of photos, videos, satellite imagery, and witness testimonies.
Despite the findings, HRW is advocating for a comprehensive investigation and urging both Gaza and Israeli authorities to disclose all relevant evidence.
