On the other hand I think Hamas is more than capable of blowing up a hospital and then blaming Israel.
Military missiles do of course leave telltale debris behind - that’s how we first knew that Ukraine has begun using American ATACMS long range missiles. The debris is characteristic. If Israel did this then debris matching the magnitude of destruction will be found. Given the ubiquity of mobile phone cameras and CCTV, no doubt footage showing a detonation typical of an Israeli missile (as opposed to an IED loaded with low-explosive and gas canisters) is also likely to be found.

(Edit)
There is also the possibility of an accidental hit either by the IDF or Hamas. Plenty of video doing the rounds this evening supports the claim that an outbound Hamas rocket was responsible for this. Though I still believe Hamas is perfectly capable of doing this deliberately.
