Both Israel and Hamas are trading blame over the blast at Al-Ahli Baptist Hospital in Gaza City that killed hundreds of people. Jeff Semple has reaction from both sides and speaks with one United Nations war crime investigator about what may not have caused the explosion.
The deadly blast at Al-Ahli Baptist Hospital in Gaza City is angering many Arabs, who are blaming Israel for the attack. Israel says it is not responsible, though, and that the explosion was the result of Palestinian Islamic Jihad's failed rocket launch. PIJ denies the claim. As Crystal Goomansingh explains, Israel's relations with its neighbours are deteriorating.
U.S. President Joe Biden has met with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, reaffirming America's support for Israel, while urging Tel Aviv to use restraint in its response to Hamas. Jackson Proskow looks at the diplomatic balancing act Biden is trying to manage amid escalating tensions in the Middle East.
It's too early to confidently declare who was responsible for the deadly explosion at Al-Ahli Baptist Hospital in Gaza City. But that hasn't stopped misinformation and disinformation about the attack from running rampant online. Redmond Shannon looks at how Bellingcat, a pioneer of open-source intelligence, could be crucial to the investigation.
The Israel-Hamas conflict shows no signs of slowing down, and Israel's neighbouring countries are watching the situation closely. Touria Izri explains how a diplomatic deal between Israel and Saudi Arabia, which the U.S. is trying to broker, is now on thin ice due to the Middle East crisis.
Plus, foreign nationals, including Canadians, trapped in Gaza have been promised they'll get out, but there's still no timeline for when that will happen. Dawna Friesen speaks with Suzan Harb, a Palestinian-Canadian teacher from Alberta, about what she and her family are enduring.
