New video shows Israeli soldiers shooting dead 15 emergency workers in Gaza | BBC News
Newly-released mobile phone footage shows the moment Israeli soldiers opened fired on a convoy of ambulances in Gaza, killing 15 rescue workers. The video contradicts the Israel Defence Forces account of the incident, in which they claimed the vehicles had been travelling without headlights or emergency flashing lights and appeared to be a threat.
The video, released by the Palestine Red Crescent Society shows the clearly-marked ambulances with headlights and emergency flashing lights switched on. The PRCS said the video was obtained from the phone of a paramedic who was killed in the Israeli attack.
In response to the new video, the IDF told the BBC: “All claims, including the documentation circulating about the incident, will be thoroughly and deeply examined to understand the sequence of events and the handling of the situation”.
The video shows the marked vehicles drawing to a halt on the edge of the road, lights still flashing, and at least two emergency workers stepping out wearing reflective clothing. Shooting can then be heard lasting for several minutes as the man filming says prayers.
The footage was found on his phone after his body was recovered from a shallow grave one week after the incident. The bodies of the eight paramedics, six Gaza Civil Defence workers and one United Nations employee were found buried in sand, along with their wrecked vehicles. It took international organisations days to negotiate safe access to the site.
Israel claimed a number of Hamas and Islamic Jihad militants had been killed in the shooting, but has not provided any evidence for that claim or explained the alleged threat to its troops.

The Iran War Today looks at tit for tat US and Iranian strikes in the Gulf region as the conflict reaches its 99th day.
The Lebanese army says several of its troops have been killed in an Israeli airstrike on a military vehicle in the south of the country.
And the row has spilled over onto the World Cup. Iran has accused the US of discriminatory treatment and of violating its obligations as a World Cup host for refusing visas to some of its football team’s delegation.

US President Donald Trump tells Israel and Iran to stop “shooting”, after the countries attacked each other’s territory for the first time since the April ceasefire.
Israel carried out air strikes in western and central Iran, after Iran fired missiles at northern Israel.
Iran said it’s “the beginning of a full week of continuous strikes” – it launched its attacks after Israel carried out air strikes on Beirut in Lebanon on Sunday.
The Israeli military said those strikes, on Hezbollah targets in the city’s southern suburbs, were a response to Hezbollah firing rockets at Israel.
