Blast at hospital from 'rocket aimed at Haifa' - Regev
More from Mark Regev, the senior adviser to the Israeli Prime Minister, who has told BBC News it is the belief of the Israeli authorities that a Hamas rocket was to blame for the blast at the Al Ahli hospital.
"We know that at the time of this tragedy in Gaza, there was a huge barrage against targets in central Israel. We had the siren here in Tel Aviv, and I went to a bomb shelter," he said.
"We know they fired rockets at that same time. Hamas put out a statement that they were sending a long-range rocket on Haifa [northern Israel] at this time."
"Now no rocket actually reached Haifa. Where did that rocket go? Where did it land?"
The BBC is working to verify what caused the blast at the Al Ahli hospital, which Palestinian authorities have blamed on the Israeli military.

Hamas wants a propaganda victory - Regev
More from Mark Regev, senior adviser to the Israeli prime minister, who's been speaking to BBC News about the blast at the hospital in Gaza.
"I urge you to be cautious. There are very serious indications that it’s not us."
"Hamas wants to have a propaganda victory, saying Israel has killed innocent civilians."
"There’s no evidence to support that claim," Regev said.
The BBC is working to verify what happened at the hospital on Tuesday evening.'

Riiiight, we're expected to believe that a) Hamas has weapons this powerful: https://nitter.net/MaxBlumenthal/status/1714369922237624331#m (Blumenthal thinks it was a 'jdam' from the sound of it) b) the targeting on it was so bad that it didn't even hit Israel and c) it just happened to directly hit a hospital, killing hundreds. They're not even bothering to come up with even vaguely plausible lies at this point. It's contemptuous, and I bet the beeb didn't challenge him one bit. They're now faithfully repeating the script that Israel denies responsibility and so do the people they blamed, Islamic Jihad - but who are you going to believe, nudge nudge, wink wink. From the live feed, 22:20 17 Oct:
'Hamas have blamed an Israeli air strike for causing the explosion.
But Israel denied its military was involved and said the blast was caused by rockets fired by Palestinian Islamic Jihad. The militants have also denied blame.'
Pissing in our faces...
