The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) released the results of its investigation, confirming that three Israeli prisoners and the Hamas northern Gaza brigade commander were mistakenly killed during an airstrike in November last year. While the investigation cannot be 100% certain of the cause of death, evidence strongly suggests IDF responsibility.
Sergeant Ron Sherman, Captain Nik Beizer, and civilian Elia Toledano were captured during an October attack and extracted from a Hamas tunnel in December. Initially, the IDF refuted claims they were killed in an airstrike, but now acknowledges their deaths were caused by IDF fire.
Sherman’s mother alleges the use of toxic gas by the IDF, comparing it to Auschwitz, accusing the government of premeditated murder. The IDF claims they were unaware of the hostages at the time of the airstrike.
This revelation sheds light on a tragic mistake and raises questions about the IDF’s tactics and accountability in dealing with hostage situations.
