Thousands of missiles were fired from Gaza last week, and apparently none of them turned around and struck Gaza. On the other hand Israel has been conducting a bombing campaign this week that has blown up a whole lot of buildings, including (according to the NYT) 4 other hospitals.. It is obviously possible that this was an errant missile from Gaza, it is much more likely that this was a bomb from Israel.

and apparently none of them turned around and struck Gaza.

5-20% depending on the type of missile/rocket generally land inside the Strip. They don't use aerospace grade materials, so imperfections that wouldn't cause a problem in 100 years of use as an irrigation pipe end up failing on the multiple G forces associated with rocketry.

Bro just watch the video of Hamas rocket impacts and compare it against the hospital impact, there is no fucking way that's a homemade sewer pipe rocket.
