On Monday morning, Hussam Al-Masri, a cameraman who worked for Reuters, was positioned on an external stairwell of the Nasser Hospital in southern Gaza, providing a live feed showing fighting in the distance elsewhere in the enclave.
Al-Masri was killed in an Israeli strike on the hospital.
Some minutes later, after people had rushed to treat those wounded in the strike – and other journalists arrived to cover the attack – a second Israeli strike hit the hospital.
At least 20 people were killed in the “double tap” strike, including five journalists. Israel called the attack a “tragic mishap” and said it is launching an investigation.
IDF's initial inquiry into Gaza hospital strike claims troops identified Hamas camera
The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) claimed Tuesday that the “double-tap” strike on Nasser Hospital, which killed at least 20 people, was aimed at a camera positioned by Hamas.
“From an initial inquiry, it appears that Golani Brigade troops, operating in the area of Khan Yunis to dismantle terrorist infrastructure, identified a camera that was positioned by Hamas in the area of the Nasser Hospital that was being used to observe the activity of IDF troops, in order to direct terrorist activities against them." IDF statement on Nasser Hospital inquiry.
Israel did not provide evidence for the claim.
“In light of this,” the statement continued. “The troops operated to remove the threat by striking and dismantling the camera and the inquiry showed that the troops operated to remove the threat.”
So the Reuters cameraman was Hamas camera... But it was a tragic mishap.
IDF claims six "terrorists" were killed in Nasser Hospital strike
The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) claimed in a statement that “six of the individuals killed” in its strikes on Nasser Hospital were terrorists.
“Six of the individuals killed were terrorists, one of whom took part in the infiltration into Israeli territory on October 7th,” said the statement, which announced the conclusion of the initial inquiry into the incident. “At the same time, the Chief of the General Staff regrets any harm caused to civilians.”
A security source told CNN that none of the journalists killed on Monday were targets of the strike.
IDF outlines further inquiries into "several gaps" related to Nasser strike
The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said it would “examine several gaps” related to its “double-tap” attack on Nasser Hospital, including an “examination of the authorization process prior to the strike” and an “an examination of the decision making process in the field.”
The IDF claimed Tuesday that an initial inquiry into the strike, which killed at least 20 people, including journalists and medical staff, showed that the intended target was a camera positioned by Hamas to capture Israeli military activity. Israel did not provide evidence for the claim.
“The Chief of the General Staff emphasized that the IDF directs its activities solely toward military targets,” the statement concluded.
An Israeli security official previously told CNN that the forces involved in the strike were authorized to strike the camera with a drone, but fired two tank shells: the first at the camera and the second at rescue forces.
Further inquiries to add more lies on top of the other lies. Throw out a bunch of contradicting statements to be repeated by the Western Media to ? legitimize firing tank shells at a crowded hospital ?
