    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    Rumors and theories about who was to blame for Tuesday evening’s devastating blast at Al-Ahli Baptist Hospital in Gaza City have ripped through social media since the night of the strike.

    According to the Ministry of Health in the Palestinian territory of Gaza, which is run by the militant Islamist group Hamas — classified a terrorist organization by the EU, Germany and other states — some 500 people were killed in the blast and ensuing blaze.

    Claim: Some are saying the Israeli army boasted that it bombed the hospital in Gaza because patients inside would not have survived anyway due to a lack of medical supplies.

    The supposed “proof” for this claim is a screenshot of a post allegedly published on the Israel Defense Forces’ (IDF) Arabic-language Facebook page.

    Using a reverse image search, the DW fact check team found that it had already been shared on social media platforms, including TikTok, in 2022.

    The Qatari broadcaster Al-Jazeera was one of the first media outlets to report on the blast and initially claimed it was caused by an Israeli air strike, citing official sources in Gaza.
