Gaza frontline report: horrific aftermath of hospital explosion – BBC News
*** Warning: distressing images
Horrific scenes following an explosion at a hospital in Gaza City continued the day after the blast, with terrible suffering and grief as relatives mourned the dead and the search continued for the remains of Palestinian victims.
Health officials in Gaza said almost 500 people were killed in the explosion at the Al-Ahli hospital in Gaza City. They claim an Israeli airstrike was responsible.
However on a visit to Tel Aviv, US President Joe Biden said the deadly blast appears to have been caused by a rocket fired by Palestinian militants, backing Israel’s account of the incident.
Israel’s military said the explosion was caused by a failed Palestinian rocket, which was intended to strike Israeli territory.
The tragedy has inflamed tensions and sparked protests across the region.
Clive Myrie presents BBC News at Ten reporting by Jeremy Bowen and Rushdi Abualouf reporting from the scene of the explosion.

Pioneering US civil rights leader Dolores Huerta, who advocated for poor farm workers, has died at the age of 96, her family has announced.
The prominent labour organiser campaigned alongside fellow labour leader Cesar Chavez for farm workers’ rights in the 1960s and 1970s, founding the transformative United Farm Workers Union (UFW) with him.
Huerta continued her advocacy work on immigration and voting issues through her foundation, and was presented by former President Barack Obama with a Medal of Freedom in 2012.

Texas has voted for every Republican president since 1980, but polls show the traditionally Republican state could elect its first Democratic senator in over 30 years.
So why is the race so close? What are the polls telling us? And what could it mean for the national political picture in the US?

Dozens of supermarkets across seven European countries have been hit by a cyber-attack affecting their refrigerators and freezers.
Around 40 Delhaize supermarkets in Belgium and Luxembourg were affected, while a smaller number of shops were hit in Sweden, Ireland, the Netherlands, Estonia and Finland.
Sabcobel, a Belgian company that manufactures some of the affected refrigerators, said the units’ evaporators were switched to defrost mode, causing them to warm up, in what is believed to be the same method used in last month’s incident that hit hundreds of French supermarkets.
Millions of euros worth of food had to be thrown away in October, local media reported at the time.

James Talarico gives victory speech after winning Texas Senate seat for Democrats | BBC News
Democrat James Talarico has won a key Senate race in Texas, in what is likely the single biggest upset for Republicans in this year’s elections.
Talarico’s stunning victory over Republican Ken Paxton marks the first time a Democrat has won a US Senate seat in Texas since 1988 – and has helped solidify Democrats taking full control of the US Congress in a tidal wave of wins across the US.
Paxton sought to portray Talarico’s views as too progressive for the state, and campaigned alongside Trump on several occasions.
As the nation’s second most populous state, Texas has been a bastion of conservatism, routinely rolling out Republican policies that are later employed elsewhere.

It was a scene of carnage in Afghanistan, after twin explosions near Kabul Airport, killed at least 60 people and injured dozens more.
The first blast is thought to have been the work of a suicide bomber, passing among the crowds gathered for more than a week at one of the airport’s main gates, to try to get flights out of the country.
The second was at a nearby hotel. Along with Afghan civilians, 12 US military personnel were killed
There had been warnings in recent days that an offshoot of the Islamic State group in the region was planning an attack and ISIS-K has claimed it was behind the bombings.
The Pentagon says evacuation flights will continue, despite the threat of more attacks.
Clive Myrie presents BBC News at Ten reporting by Lyse Doucet and Secunder Kermani in Kabul, Aleem Maqbool in Washington and security correspondent Frank Gardner.

Israel should not be acquitted of this crime without going to the place and studying the site well, and I believe that this has not happened yet, so I wonder how those who claim justice and humanity were able to believe them before confirming, what a shame.

How come the mothers arent with the injured children? You always see news with men carrying the children…it seems like its done that way for the cameras. Whats up with that? Its not natural. Usually the women are naturally with the children not the men. It seems suspicious.

"The BLU-129/B, which has the same dimensions and weight as the Mk 82, but with a carbon-fibre body, rather than a steel one. Rather than fragmenting, the carbon-fibre body disintegrates on detonation. This results in the explosive shockwave being localised, and significantly reduces natural fragmentation, thereby reducing the level of damage outside the effective radius.
Like the BLU-126/B, the BLU-129/B has the size and weight dimensions of the Mk 82, and can also replace the bomb unit for the JDAM and laser-guided variants of the Mk 82."
"One of the manufacturers of the Mk 82 also produces a version with a pre-fragmented body. This means that the bomb’s body has been scored at regular intervals along its length and width so that it will readily break apart into fragments of uniform size. The effect of pre-fragmentation on the overall effectiveness of the Mk 82 is significant. A standard Mk 82 bomb body produces a lethal area of approximately 80 m (across) by 30 m (along), giving a lethal area of approximately 2,400 m2. The pre-fragmented version, known as the PFB-82, produces a similarly-shaped, but much larger lethal area of 240 m (across) by 80 m (along) high, giving a lethal area of 19,200 m2. As Figure 1 shows, an Mk 82 with standard forged-steel body will produce fewer than 3,000 natural fragments, but the PFB-82 model will produce almost 17,000 fragments (Ordtech, 2016)."
"As shown in Table 1, there is a 10% risk of being incapacitated at a 250 m distance from the point of detonation, and a 0.1% (1 in 1,000) risk of being incapacitated at 425 m. The manufacturer states that the Mk 82 is designed to produce fragments that vary in weight from 0.2 g to 20 g, which will be travelling at an initial velocity of between 760 m/s to 2,440 m/s (Ordtech, 2016). In practice, the Mk 82 produces some fragments that are much larger than the stated 20 g."

Welcome, you are watching the Lies and Deception Channel. We did not tell you that there are children killed daily under bombing, and we will not tell you that thousands of residents were displaced from their homes or killed in them because they were destroyed. Likewise, we cannot tell you that hospitals, mosques and churches were bombed and anyone who entered them died. We cannot. Saying that there are families that have been erased from records, that there are hundreds of orphaned children in a hospital now, that there are no water, electricity, gas, food and medicine available, that thousands of wounded people who are suffering cannot find medicine, and that dozens of premature infants will not bear any more after the hospital runs out of electricity. ..Because it does not matter to us, we follow a policy and do not understand the meaning of humanity.🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸

The BBC use to be a news organisation you could trust…but reporting exactly what Hamas tells you report, unquestioningly, without independently verifying the information, is unpardonable; it shows how left-wing bias is rampant, and how journalists enter a situation not with an open mind and looking to report the unvarnished facts, but instead with a political agenda, with prejudice and preconceptions. Truly disgraceful. 😡
