Israels airstrikes have targeted an ambulance carrying injured civilians towards the Rafah border...

[starfleet]

The images coming through on news channels are horrific.

accidental or targeted if it was full of Hamas members
oh god not the human shields nonsense again,
or do you think an underground tunnel was right under that moving ambulance ?

so inhumane of you to down play such a horrific thing.

@OhHelloTheres , it seems a deliberate misrepresentation to me, propaganda call it what you will. There’s a lot of it about…

Reports of separate attacks, one of ambulances in front of the hospital and another of a convoy of ambulances on the road to Rafah that was targeted 3 seperate times and forced to turn back north.

Not reported by any Hamas institution but by a doctor being interviewed

They have not bombed an ambulance.

They have bombed a whole CONVOY of ambulances. That would be after them bombing people fleeing south on a road - just as they had told them to.

And then they bombed the vicinity of not one but several hospitals!

There is no amount of hasbara that can hide what Israel is doing anymore! This is not war - this is a revenge bloodfest. This is genocide!

I can and will continue to grieve for the Israeli victims of 7/10 and to call for hostages to be freed. But as for the Israeli government - including the so-called "moderates" within the war cabinet:

These people need to go down! What Mossad did to people like Eichmann: THIS needs to be done to them (with the hopefully notable exception that I vehemently disagree with the death penalty): these people will need to be hunted down, brought to justice and locked away - under conditions that guarantee their human rights - for the rest of their fucking lives!

Why would your thoughts be with those injured?

According to you they might have been Hamas fighters hitching a lift in an ambulance.

If they were Hamas fighters I couldn't give a fuck about them but we both know they were not.

The excuses for Israel's actions get more demented by the day.

The man in the linked video has been in lots of staged videos for Hamas - he’s an actor - he’s been a singer, he’s been a journalist, he’s been a doctor and he’s been lying in a hospital bed pretending to be critically injured (while all the hospital machines were turned off). He was also seen celebrating in the street as Hamas rockets went flying overhead.

search “hamas crisis actor” on X

If you have Instagram see @everydaypalestine and @eye.on.palestine

They are different people.

The guy in the hospital bed lost his leg in July 2023 and the video of him is from August 2023.

There are numerous websites that have debunked the claims using reverse image searches.

Like the picture of an injured 8 year old boy that the official Israeli Gov account on X claimed was a doll that was completely debunked by the BBC

The claims that the video of the ‘dead body’ texting when wrapped in a shroud has also been debunked.

The original video was from a protest in Egypt a while ago.

Later from sky
IDF have said they are looking into it

Sorry my mistake he was 4!!

LittleMissFullOfIt - nice attempt to smear Israel. Perhaps Hamas were using the ambulance to transport fights, weaponry, etc. I mean, in truth, that is what Hamas does: embed itself in civilian areas and use civilians as shields.

I googled "Hamas crisis actor" and this is what came up.

That has been debunked as a conspiracy theory, reported by several outlets:

https://www.france24.com/en/tv-shows/truth-or-fake/20231027-pallywood-this-hospital-patient-is-not-a-paid-actor-faking-injuries-in-gaza

I think the clue as to the veracity of this claim can be detected in the phrase “Hamas-run Gaza health ministry”.

Sky News obviously not averse to spread inflammatory bullshit

The doctor is either a liar, works for Hamas or can't count. (sarcasm alert for anyone in doubt)

I guess you’ll find what you want to. The same man is in close to a dozen videos now.

Stop spreading lies.

You are deliberately spreading misinformation if you perpetuate this lie.

Hamas have done enough terrible things without people making up other stuff.

This is what reputable Palestinian journalists are going through…it’s heartbreaking. The reports are being called out as fake by apologists on mumsnet .

its a news report, no pictures of injuries.

Absolutely heartbreaking. There are a lot of people on the wrong side of this. History won't be kind to them.

Not just a doctor - also independent gazawi citizen journalists. The pictures, descriptions, and videos are all over the place!

(If you have not yet: do NOT go to look them up - you will be traumatised and it will not help anyone! As someone who has already had therapy for war trauma: the "random minor detail" that just made me break me down sobbing among all the horror was that of a horse, still in its harness, among all the casualties. I do not expect - nor do I want anyone to - prioritise a horse over the dozens of human casualties. But I could just not help breaking into tears - having taught myself to just somehow NOT, ALL THE TIME, over all the gruesome, cruel shit I see all day, every day!)

No one confirm if it was targetted or hit. So technically both are lies if you think about it.

Don't believe anything on X from any side without verification from respected international agencies and/or independent fact checkers.

Unless of course you actually want to spread misinformation which im not ruling out.
