17. "did not come from inside the UNRWA school compound, but from the outside"
The Geneva Convention states that parties shall ensure that protected areas like schools are placed as far away as possible from military targets. Hamas is splitting hairs if they fired from outside since they violated the Geneva Convention anyway. But that's how their PR machine works. They place their launchers so that Israel will hopefully kill innocents, then get it on the news.
