    I added it because they are different. All news sources I saw said it was a missile that hit the hospital. It is reasonable to think that journalists will use the words that they mean. When a truck crashes into a building, I wouldn’t look at people who only have cars for the culprit.

      Do you really think most journalists will know the difference, or think it matters?

      Besides, guided munitions are frequently referred to as “rocket artillery” even by the military.
