<ref>Melissa Koenig, [https://nypost.com/2023/10/18/what-is-islamic-jihad-the-hamas-aligned-group-blamed-for-gaza-hospital-bombing/ Inside the Islamic Jihad, the group blamed for the attack on a Gaza hospital], ''NY Post'', Oct. 18, 2023.<blockquote><small>
The Palestinian Islamic Jihad, a lesser-known terrorist organization working in coordination with Hamas, has been blamed for a deadly attack on a hospital in Gaza City.
... at the Al-Ahli Arab Hospital...
Israeli officials .. demonstrated that the blast at the hospital was caused by a misfired rocket launched by the Palestinian Islamic Jihad.
The attack marked the deadliest escalation of the war between Israel and Hamas since the terrorist group launched its surprise attack on October 7.
Here is what we know about the Islamic Jihad and its ties to Hamas:
The Palestinian Islamic Jihad is the second-largest armed group in Gaza, with around 1,000 active members, according to the U.S, Director of National Intelligence.
Its goal is to establish an Islamist Palestinian state and destroy the state of Israel, according to Fox News.
The group was founded in 1979 in the Gaza Strip to fight Israeli occupation and continues to maintain a presence in both Gaza and the West Bank.
It is now led by Sec. Gen. Ziya al-Nakhalah, whom the United States Department of State classifies as a Specially Designated Global Terrorist.
How does it relate to Hamas?
The PIJ and Hamas are considered the two most important members of the joint operations room, which coordinates most military activity among armed groups in the Gaza Strip, according to The New York Times.
But the PIJ often works independently from Hamas, and is more focused on military confrontations — and has rejected peace talks with the Jewish state.
Its military wing, the al-Quds Brigades, has been responsible for many of the attacks on Israel over the past few years.
Israel and the United States consider both organizations to be terrorist groups.
What role has the PIJ played in the current war?
Aside from being blamed for the attack on the Gaza City hospital, al-Nakhalah has taken responsibility for holding captive more than 30 of the hostages Hamas took when it launched its surprise attack on Israel earlier this month.
In a statement, the al-Quds Brigade spokesman said: “We are part of this battle and our fighters are shoulder to shoulder alongside their brothers in the Al-Qassam Brigades until victory, God willing.”
What is its relation to Iran?
The PIJ, like Hamas, receives support from Iran, Syria, and the Lebanese terrorist group Hezbollah, Fox reports
Iran, in particular, has provided rockets and drones to the terrorist organization, which got much of its inspiration from the Iranian revolution — seeing it as a movement to be modeled across the Arab world.
In that fashion, the PIJ adopted the suicide techniques used by Islamists in Iran in 1979.
Shaqaqi’s successor, Ramadan Abdallah Shallah, has also held meetings with Iranian officials in Tehran and Damascus.
Israeli officials now believe Iran is orchestrating the terrorist group’s attacks.</small></blockquote></ref><ref>Robert Swift, [https://www.i24news.tv/en/news/israel-at-war/1697616740-idf-clear-evidence-shows-gazan-jihadists-behind-hospital-blast IDF: Clear evidence shows Gazan jihadists behind hospital blast], ''i24'', October 18, 2023 </ref> naturally guilty Palestinian [[Hamas]] terrorist regime, immediately blamed Israel for their "accident," which triggered protests among the Arab world.

Before investigating and checking, Hamas' mouthpiece [[Al Jazeera]] (al Jihadzeera) had inflamed the Arab world by broadcasting Hamas' lie blaming victim-Iarael, and 'protests' broke out. As well as increased ecpressions of hate.
