Who is responsible for the bombing of al-Ahli Arab Hospital in Gaza City?
In the hours following the nightmarish attack that killed at least 471 people, Israeli officials began disseminating what they said was evidence pinning it on Palestinian militants.
But there are two problems. First, a lot of the evidence isn’t adding up. Second, Israel has a long history of covering up attacks on civilians.
And while the truth of the hospital bombing remains to be established, Israeli officials are following the same PR tactics previously used to deny civilian killings that they later admit to carrying out.
