Dec 15 (Reuters) - The Israeli military mistakenly killed three hostages being held in Gaza by Hamas during an incident which is “under review”, a military spokesperson said on Friday.
The military said the hostages were killed during combat with militants in Gaza and expressed its condolences to the families while saying there would be “full transparency” in the investigation into the incident.
A statement from the military said that during an intense battle in Gaza it “identified three Israeli hostages as a threat”. “As a result, the troops fired toward them and they were killed.”
Earlier on Friday, the Israeli military said it had recovered the bodies of three Israelis - a civilian and two soldiers - who had been held in the Gaza Strip by Hamas.
The other Israeli hostages they killed were very intentional.
Critical support to Comrade IDF’s ongoing war against Israeli settlers. This is their greatest achievement since shooting their civilians with helicopters.
Imagine if the IDF turned on Israel 🤔 would they be able to liberate the Palestinian people?
I have faith that they will in the end.
-
The IDF funded Hamas which today is the only force militantly liberating the Palestinian people
-
The IDF did the most significant attack against Israelis in its history, both using its Hamas paramilitary forces and helicopters to make a firm statement against the illegal settlements.
Let 'em cook hostages.
So that’s at least 30 to 60
The IOF doesn’t admit to murder, they “identified three Israeli hostages as a threat” and “as a result, the troops fired toward them and they were killed”.
After the bullets leave the gun, the shooter is no longer responsible for where they go or who they enter, like with cops.
I wonder how many hostages they’ve deliberately murdered thinking they were Palestinian.
There was an incident where a (West Bank?) IDF settler shot who he thought was a Palestinian civilian (the guy was unarmed, dressed as a civilian, had no weapon and had his hands up); there was a video of the incident, and people were cheering him killing ‘Hamas’ (seriously, even in the video the guy had no weapons and had his hands up), but then it came out that the guy who got killed was himself in the IDF, and all these people deleted their tweets and went silent.
this the guy who they shot his face off while he was trying to tell them he was jewish and let him bleed out?
I think I found the IDF guy who got shot, his name is Yuval Castleman; apparently he might have had a firearm but threw it down and raised his hands up, and then got shot. He had enough time to yell that he was Israeli and threw down his wallet too. I’m not sure how he died.
Hilariously his family are being centrist libs about it; they’re saying they’re angry but they don’t know what they would’ve done in that situation themselves.
