"Rashida Tlaib challenges US and Israel findings on Gaza hospital blast, calls for independent investigation"
Rep. Rashida Tlaib is calling for an independent investigation into the bombing of a Gaza hospital, refusing to accept the findings of the US and Israel that Islamic Jihad terrorists were responsible. Tlaib cited doubts raised by media outlets and third-party analysts and expressed agreement with the United Nations on the need for an independent investigation. She criticized Israel's denials of responsibility, pointing to reports of previous bombings of medical facilities in Gaza. Both the White House and the Israeli government have determined that the explosion was caused by a misfired Islamic Jihad rocket. Tlaib accused both governments of misleading the public in the past and called for a ceasefire to save innocent lives.
