Video recovered from a Palestinian medical cell phone was killed with 14 his colleagues in Gaza last month in conflict with Israeli demands.
Video-deaf Refa Radwan was found on the phone and released on Saturday by the Palestinian Red Crescent Society (PRCS)-Occupied its last moments as a Palestinian medical person, wearing highly reflective uniforms, and inside the Equipment Dispenses, take a picture of Israeli forces in Rafah’s Tal AS-Sultan.
Israeli military personnel had stated that its soldiers did not “accidentally” in ambulance cars, insisting that they released the “terrorists” approaching them in “suspicious vehicles”. It said: “Several unmatched vehicles were identified suspiciously moving towards (the Israeli army) troops without headlights or emergency signals.”
The PRC lost eight of its employees in the attack. On that day, six members of the Palestinian Civil Protection Agency were killed and the United Nations Agency staff who were Palestinian refugees, Unrwa.
Their bodies were found buried near Rafah in what described the coordination of humanitarian affairs (OCHA) as a mass grave.
What does the video show?
The video, apparently filmed from the inside of a moving vehicle, captures a red fire and ambulance cars all night.
The vehicles stop on each other on the road and two uniforms men go out. After a while, an intense gun stands out.
The video shows the voices of two doctors – one says, “Vehicle, vehicle” and the other replies, “This is an accident.”
After seconds, the cannon fire volleyball stands out and the screen turns black.
The doctors who record the picture can later be heard by recording the Islamic declaration of faith in Shahad, whose Muslims traditionally say in the face of death. “There is no God, but God, Muhammad is His messenger,” he repeatedly says that his voice trembles with fear, because the intense cannon fire continues in the background.
We also hear him say, “Forgive me my mother, because I chose this way to help people.” He then says, “Accept my martyr, God, and forgive me.”
Just before the end of the video, he is heard saying, “Jews are coming, Jews are coming,” apparently referring to Israeli soldiers.
The PRC said the caravan was sent in response to emergency calls from civilians imprisoned after the Israeli bombing in Rafah.
According to Gaza’s civil defense spokesman Mahmoud Bassal, several members of their team were found with their own hands and feet tied and visible bullet wounds on the head and torso, suggesting that they were executed close to the range after identification for their humanitarian work. He said one of the civil protection staff was decapitated and the remaining bodies were found in pieces.
Jonathan Whittall, the head of Ocha in Palestine, said the bodies of humanitarian workers are “their uniforms in their uniforms, still wearing gloves” when they were found.
An Israeli military official said the bodies were covered in “sand and fabric” to avoid losses until they could arrange coordination with international organizations. The military added that it was investigating the attack.
“There is no parallel in modern history”
Israel “must be responsible for its crimes, which are not parallel to modern history,” said Gaza’s civil defense spokesman on Saturday.
“We are asking for the establishment of an International Investigation Committee for the selection of the occupation target audience on the Feldshers in Rafah,” the spokesman said, adding that Palestinian rescue workers will continue to “perform their duties, despite the occupation’s deliberate target audience.”
Saturday’s announcement by the Gaza Government Media Bureau said Israeli military personnel had “brutal and unprecedented medical and civil protection teams, calling it” another crime attached to the black recording of the occupation “.
It states that the video “fully reflects the false and misleading narrative of Israeli occupation” that the vehicles “suspicious” turned without clear signals.
Palestinian group Hamas said on Saturday that “unprecedented visual evidence shakes the lies of” suspicious movements “of the occupation, demonstrating a systematic target audience of humanitarian staff and creating a thoughtful murder under international law.”
“We demand international justice for the victims of this terrible crime,” the statement said.
UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Volker Turks also condemned the attack, raising concerns about the possible “war crimes” by Israeli military personnel.
“I am outraged at the recent murders of 15 medical staff and humanitarian workers who conducted additional concerns about war crimes by Israeli military personnel,” Volker Turk told the UN Security Council on Thursday calling for “independent, quick and careful investigation.”
According to UNRWA, Israeli forces in Gaza have killed at least 408 assistance staff, including more than 280 UNRWA staff, since the beginning of the war on October 7, 2023. More than 50,000 Palestinians have been killed since then, most of whom have been killed.
