Which power in previous wars had committed such cruel crimes against #humanity?

The #Wikipedia page for the disputed airstrike at Al Ahli hospital is a disaster en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Al-

Starting with the death counts being in what appears to be ascending order?

Despite the references for the lower counts BOTH mentioning the 471 body count from #GazaMOH and mentioning it more prominently then the lower numbers.

The 250 figure is particularly ridiculous.

Un evento che ha danneggiato la credibilità del Ministero della Sanità a Gaza è stata l'esplosione nel cortile dell'ospedale #AlAhli il 17 ottobre, dopo la quale il Ministero aveva annunciato che "più di 500" palestinesi erano rimasti uccisi.

Nella pratica poi, sulla base delle interviste e della documentazione dei danni causati nell'area dell'ospedale, vari media e organizzazioni per i diritti umani come Human Rights Watch hanno stimato che il numero reale fosse inferiore, e il direttore dell'ospedale Shifa ha affermato la notte dell'esplosione che all'ospedale erano arrivati ​​tra i 150 e i 200 morti.

Nonostante questo insolito incidente, esiste un ampio consenso nella comunità dei diritti umani sul fatto che i numeri del Ministero della Sanità di Gaza siano affidabili, sulla base di anni di familiarità con il loro lavoro.⬇️9

"At this point, Tel Aviv's war operations have nothing to do with their right to self-defense or the fight against extremist groups, but with ethnic cleansing and genocide against the Palestinian people, while Western governments and corporations censor any criticism of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's policy, as well as any call for solidarity with the victims.

Save the Children reported that every 15 min. a minor dies in Gaza from the indiscriminate bombing of Israel, bringing children to a third of the total deaths in the Palestinian enclave. At the same time, the Israeli army publicly warns that it has no intention of respecting hospitals and threatens to destroy Al Quds's, as it did with the Christian #hospital of Al-Ahli, where more than 500 people were massacred."

Fighters in Gaza launched a barrage of rockets toward #Israel & in the direction of #alAhli Hospital 44 secs before an explosion there that killed ≥100….
…WaPo geolocated the barrage origin to a point SW of the hospital, matching the rough location the #IDF alleged was the launch site of a misfired rocket….Experts said rockets from that barrage would have been able to reach the hospital in time for the explosion.

“Given the sensitive nature of the news during a widening conflict, & the prominent promotion it received, Times editors should have taken more care w/the initial presentation, & been more explicit about what information could be verified. Newsroom ldrs continue to examine procedures around the biggest breaking news events — incl’g for the use of the largest headlines in the digital report — to determine what additional safeguards may be warranted.”

The blast at #AlAhli al-Arabi #Hospital in #Gaza was not the result of missile strike by #Israel, but likely caused by a misfiring #Palestinian rocket, the #French military #intelligence directorate (#DRM) said.

"There is nothing that allows us to say that it is an Israeli strike, but the most likely (scenario) is a Palestinian rocket that had a firing incident.” - DRM
