If Israel wasn’t targeting hospitals, why tell them to evacuate?

While we still do not know who targeted the al-Ahli Batist Hospital in Gaza last night, there is evidence pointing to Israel.
Right, so last night social media was pretty much talking about one thing and one thing only and that was the appalling spectacle of a hospital in Gaza being blown to bits by a missile attack. Who targets a hospital? Fatalities are numbering in the high hundreds at time of writing. Who’s missile though? Well if you talk to Israel, they’ve given several conflicting accounts of the matter, if you speak to Palestinians, they are very much saying it is Israel, if you speak to any number of other Middle East countries they’re saying Israel too, Western Countries more likely to say the opposite, but of course we need to prove all of this and yet the media and our politicians are refusing to highlight what appears to be obvious even when there is evidence to point to, certainly enough to prompt some urgent questions to the authorities concerned.
Right, so there’s no escaping the news that the al-Ahli Baptist Hospital in Northern Gaza has been hit by a missile, killing hundreds of people who had been inside. This is one of the worst examples of innocent blood being spilled needlessly this century and short of being a complete sociopath your heart breaks for the people and the families affected by this horrific course of events, this tragedy, where a hospital get’s targeted during the course of a war. It’s civilian infrastructure, surely it ought to be a no go zone even if your enemy might use such places to hide? The Baptist Hospital is separate from Gazan health infrastructure, it is a standalone and self-contained, set up 141 years ago by the Church of England’s Christian Mission Society and now it is gone, along with so many people who were inside. With fuel, food, water and electricity cut off, many people from the north of Gaza, despite the Israeli order to evacuate and head south, could not do so. Many chose the hospital to shelter in, so on top of patients and staff, who also couldn’t evacuate, having no way to move their patients, a great many others were seeking refuge there too, believing that Israel wouldn’t target a hospital, that not even they would go there. Except it looks very much like they did. Now I’m not just saying that as someone who is pro-Palestinian here, I’ve been calling Israel out for its apartheid for a long time, regular viewers know this, it’s not a new thing, but there is ample albeit still circumstantial evidence pointing to Israel as the perpetrators of this attack. Let’s start with the lead up to these events. Israel gave the 1.1 or 1.2m people who live in the north of Gaza 24 hours to evacuate and move south. It didn’t matter what building you might occupy there, everyone was told 24 hours. Now this got extended, when various bodies and organisations pointed out how impossible it was to evacuate that many people that quickly with resources cut off and all of that, but there were no exceptions made in this demand at all. Why ask the likes of schools and hospitals to evacuate if you didn’t mean to bomb them?
