Britain urges “waiting for the facts” regarding the Gaza hospital massacre

British Foreign Secretary James Cleverly urged on Wednesday to wait for the facts regarding an explosion in a hospital in the Gaza Strip that occurred on Tuesday, and said that many had already jumped to conclusions.


He wrote in a post on the “X” platform, formerly known as “Twitter”: “Last night, many jumped to conclusions about the tragic loss of life at Al-Ahli Hospital.”


He continued, saying: “Understanding this incorrectly will put more lives at risk.” Wait for the facts and convey them clearly and accurately. "Calm minds must triumph."


The bombing of the National Arab Baptist Hospital in the Gaza Strip yesterday, Tuesday, caused a huge number of deaths and injuries and cast a shadow over the visit of US President Joe Biden to Israel.


Palestinian officials said that an Israeli air strike was the cause of the explosion, while Israel says that the cause was a missile fired by the Islamic Jihad movement that did not reach its target, which the movement denied.
