A forensic doctor who examined the bodies of some of the 15 paramedics and Palestinian rescue workers shot dead by Israeli forces and buried in a mass grave in southern Gaza has said there is evidence of execution-style killing, based on the “specific and intentional” location of shots at close range.
Ahmad Dhaher, a forensic consultant who examined five of the dead at Nasser hospital in Khan Younis after they had been exhumed, said all of them had died from bullet wounds. “All cases had been shot with multiple bullets, except for one, which could not be determined due to the body being mutilated by animals like dogs, leaving it almost as just a skeleton,” Dhaher told the Guardian.
“Preliminary analysis suggests they were executed, not from a distant range, since the locations of the bullet wounds were specific and intentional,” he said. “One observation is that the bullets were aimed at one person’s head, another at their heart, and a third person had been shot with six or seven bullets in the torso.”
AlJazeera English last week has released a documentary about investigating kids killing by Israeli IOF. My brain zoned out from the stories and herror I was watching and sat there unable to fathom what American or Western values aid and enable this. It’s Nazi Germany stuff. Discliamer: I watch NSFL and war videos all the time, but this is too hard to watch if you understand English and were a human with a heart and brain capapible of sympathy:
You won’t hear a word about this from the libs because they full support genocide.
So these ambulance vehicles occupied by only medical personnel and unlikely to carry insurgent fighters, was driving in a convoy to serve wounded Palestinians, was suddenly completely immersed in unceasing gunfire until everyone was dead. Then another medical ambulance convoy arrived to serve the people who were killed in the previous convoy, and were also completely immersed in gunfire until everyone was dead. Then the Israeli army, realizing they fucked up, rapidly concealed the dead bodies in a mass grave.
Did I miss anything?
Yeah, like everything. It was an execution, they had to take the victims alive before killing them.
realizing they fucked up
You make this sound like it wasn’t planned. If they fuck up this often, then they are super incompetent. But I don’t believe this to be the case.
90% of their military are conscripted civilians and not professional volunteers like NATO, so yes they are super incompetent.
Yes, you missed that the bullets were aimed at specific parts of their bodies, so not just an assault on the ambulances: the medics seem to have been dragged out of the ambulances then deliberately shot in the head and heart, before being thrown in a mass grave. And at least one of them had had their hands and feet bound together before being shot in the head. This is a planned and deliberate execution of 15 medical professionals. Maybe the Israeli soldiers lined them up by the grave then shot them.
Yes, they were essentially executed. IDF soldiers knowingly shot at an ambulance clearly announcing itself as one and killed it’s occupants, and then waited for others ambulances (the convoy) to come help and shot them up to.
