Hamas Purposely Mislead International Media, Inflated Casualty Numbers
(Times of Israel) Emanuel Fabian - IDF spokesman Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari accused Hamas on Wednesday of purposely misleading international media outlets by claiming a failed rocket launched by Palestinian Islamic Jihad was an Israeli airstrike. Hagari said the damage to the hospital's parking lot was caused by the rocket impact and due to the large amount of rocket fuel that was still in the projectile as it fell short. Had it been an Israeli airstrike, "we would have seen craters and structural damage to the building, both of which were not identified in this incident."
