Israeli army admits ‘an error’ in initial account of medic killings

Israeli media are citing military sources about the initial investigation into the killing of the 15 Palestinian medics near Rafah last month.
According to their investigation, six of the 15 people killed in the convoy are believed to be Hamas operatives.
The statement says intelligence agencies have evidence to suggest this, but final confirmation has not yet been made.
A Golani Brigade force, which was at the scene and had set up an ambush near the road, two hours before the incident, observed the ambulances stopped and the occupants quickly exiting.
The force, aware that Hamas uses ambulances, sensed an immediate threat and believed they were under attack.
The statement goes on to say that regarding the discrepancy between the army’s initial account, which stated that the convoy moved without lights, and the video published tonight in international media, the army acknowledges an error.
It says an investigation will examine this discrepancy.

A video recovered from the mobile phone of a Palestinian medic killed along with 14 of his colleagues in Gaza last month contradicts Israeli claims.
The video – found on the phone of deceased Rifat Radwan and released on Saturday by the Palestine Red Crescent Society (PRCS) – shows their final moments as the Palestinian medics, wearing highly reflective uniforms and inside a clearly identifiable PRCS ambulance, are shot at by Israeli forces in Rafah’s Tal as-Sultan neighbourhood in southern Gaza on March 23.
Geoffrey Nice – a lawyer who previously worked at the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia – denounced the footage released showing 15 paramedics in Gaza coming under heavy Israeli gunfire.

Palestinians mourn aid workers killed by Israeli forces in southern Gaza

Fifteen humanitarian workers were killed in Rafah while aiding casualties, their funerals attended by grieving colleagues and families. The Palestine Red Crescent buried eight paramedics, five civil defence workers and a UN staff member, condemning Israel’s repeated targeting of medics. One paramedic remains missing as searches continue. A mourning mother recalled her son’s dedication days after he became a father, his funeral held alongside other fallen medics. The UN reiterated that attacking medical personnel violates international law. In Gaza, even funerals for healers are not safe from violence. Yet emergency workers persist, their resolve undiminished by relentless danger.

Israel’s ‘bare assertion’ defence for killing medics in Gaza fails legal scrutiny: Analysis
22,209 views Apr 1, 2025 #GazaWar #IsraelGazaWar #Israel
Jeffrey Nice, the former lead prosecutor of Slobodan Milošević at the UN war crimes tribunal, condemned Israel’s killing of 15 Gaza emergency workers as a ‘shocking event’, dismissing its Hamas camouflage claim as a ‘bare assertion’ given their clear Red Crescent markings. He emphasised that attacking specially protected humanitarian personnel violates international law, noting that Israel failed to prove military proportionality. Nice stressed that firing where civilians are present is prohibited unless justified – a standard unmet here. The incident, he argued, reflects a pattern of ignoring legal obligations toward medics. His analysis exposes the hollowness of Israel’s defence under scrutiny. These remarks come amid escalating scrutiny of Israel’s Gaza conduct. The case underscores the urgent need to enforce protections for aid workers in conflict zones.
