A recent autopsy has revealed that Gaza medics were likely deliberately targeted by Israeli occupation forces, a finding that has intensified scrutiny of the conflict. The revelation comes as Israel has altered its account of the events leading to the medics’ deaths after video evidence surfaced, according to CBS News.
Reports of Airstrike and Casualties
Reports indicate that an Israeli airstrike outside a Gaza hospital resulted in the death of a medic and injuries to several others, as reported by AP News and CBS News. The Middle East Monitor has cited autopsies indicating the deliberate targeting of medics by Israeli forces. Initially, accounts from Israeli officials differed, but after video footage emerged, the narrative shifted.
International Concerns and Calls for Investigation
The changing accounts and the autopsy findings have raised concerns among international observers and human rights organizations, prompting calls for a thorough and impartial investigation into the incidents. The deliberate targeting of medical personnel is a grave violation of international law and humanitarian principles, further escalating tensions in the region.
