The attack on the Ahli Baptist Hospital, which has been recorded as the deadliest attack in the bombing of Gaza that Israel began on October 7, which killed 471 people, remains on the agenda.
Experts from the New York Times, one of the leading newspapers in the United States of America, examined in detail the Al Jazeera video distributed by the United States and Israel to support their claims that the Islamic Jihad movement was responsible for the attack on the hospital on October 17.
The experts concluded that the claims of US and Israeli officials and their analysis of the video were “incorrect.”

The news also said: “The New York Times findings do not answer the question of what caused the hospital explosion and who exactly caused it. Although it is still possible that Israeli and American intelligence agencies claimed that a malfunctioning Palestinian rocket caused this explosion.” “The Times analysis does not answer that.” Examined the evidence presented for this purpose.” “Finds it suspicious.” Assessment made.
Al-Akhbar reported that, according to expert analysis, Israeli bombing was ongoing at the time the hospital was bombed, and that there were two explosions near the hospital in the two minutes before the hospital was bombed.
In his statement to the New York Times, Israeli army spokesman Nir Dinar said that they did not bomb the area near the hospital, but he did not give details about the extent of the bomb falling closest to the hospital.
US intelligence officials claimed, in their statement yesterday, that the missile that appeared in the video broadcast by Al Jazeera was a “deactivated Palestinian missile.”
A senior intelligence official also said that the information revealed could change that conclusion, but that their confidence in their conclusion at the moment is “high.”
A US intelligence official, when asked by The New York Times about his findings, said only that the New York Times and US intelligence “interpreted the video in different ways.”
