Hostages were holding white cloth on stick when Israeli forces shot them dead, IDF says
uk.yahoo.com
Three Israeli hostages mistakenly killed by the IDF had been holding a white flag, an Israeli military official has said. The official said an initial inquiry into the incident has found the hostages were fired upon against Israel's rules of engagement. The IDF said yesterday that the victims - all Israeli men in their 20s - were killed during combat with Hamas militants.

    Has Hamas killed any hostages at all? Israeli most be up to like 70-80 now, right?

    "There were shirtless men with no weapons and a surrender flag and we gunned them down in the street like animals" is a hell of an admission. "But it's against our ROE!" Meanwhile every IDF grunt is saying "There are no rules of engagement. Any living thing in Gaza is a target."

        Yeah. It really sounds like the Apaches were just strafing the crowds at that rave while IDF tanks were firing HE directly in to Israeli residential buildings. Fucking wild.
