There have been attempts to recruit editors of specific viewpoints to this article. Editors are encouraged to use neutral mechanisms for requesting outside input, such as request for comments, third opinions, posting to noticeboard, or other mechanisms based on neutral criteria. If someone has asked you to provide your opinion here, examine the arguments, not the editors who have made them. Remember that, on Wikipedia, disputes are resolved by community consensus, not by majority vote.
Stephen Harrison (October 26, 2023). "Wikipedia Is Covering the War in Israel and Gaza Better Than X". Slate. Retrieved October 31, 2023. The page for the Al-Ahli Arab Hospital explosion states that the "cause of the explosion is contested." Hamas has claimed that Israel carried out an airstrike on the hospital, while Israel, the United States, France, and Canada have said that their intelligence sources indicate that the cause of the explosion was a failed rocket launch by the Palestinian Islamic Jihad from within Gaza.
Nikita Aronov (8 April 2025). "Wiki Wars: Editors and propagandists are fighting for influence over the online encyclopedia's most controversial entries". The Insider. Retrieved May 29, 2025. Articles about the parking lot bombing at Al-Ahli Hospital in Gaza vary greatly depending on the language. The Russian and English pages both say that the explosion occurred in the parking lot of the medical facility but provide different casualty tolls. They also mention the Palestinian version of the IDF strike on the hospital and analyze Israel's argument that a rocket from a local group landed on the parking lot. In Arabic, however, the article is titled "Baptist Hospital Massacre." The blame is unequivocally placed on Israel, and the higher casualty toll it cites is backed only by Hamas-controlled sources.

Description of suggested change:
Your article states that:
"In its investigation on 20 October 2023, Forensic Architecture concluded that the blast was the result of a munition fired from the direction of Israel."
Source 21 is quoting an investigation of forensic architecture. It is clearly not quoted, but instead misquoting other newspaper articles.
The investigation from forensic architecture states that "what happened at al-Ahli remains inconclusive".
The aim of the investigation was not to prove or disprove whether Israel or Hamas fired the attack, but to prove israeli disinformation.
The investigation just proves that the israeli disinformation about potential propellers were their own, not that they were the ones to strike the hospital, as is stated clearly in the original source.
This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= parameter to no to reactivate your request.
Description of suggested change:
The following edit is needed because all of the sources under footnote 12 contradict the text as written. All four sources say that Israel is not responsible for the attack, so it is not really "contested." Hamas is not a legitimate source and their claim is contradicted by all four articles.
The first sentence of Paragraph 3 should therefore be deleted: "The cause of the explosion is contested."
The last sentence of this paragraph should be changed from: Hamas and PIJ stated the explosion was caused by an Israeli airstrike.
to: Hamas and PIJ falsely claimed the explosion was caused by an Israeli airstrike.
