So the bombing a hospital story is bs. Apparently.

Xitter for all its faults is the best source for breaking news. You just have to be yr own editor.
Dozens of bots sending out the same message, same images and same claims all at the same time. The old Russian propaganda playbook that NAFO fights.
Too bad it gets repeated on DU without any attempt to verify.
