(Worthy Insights) – Following an investigation into the March 23 incident that resulted in the killing of 15 Palestinians were killed by Israeli fire – a case that drew international attention – Israel Defense Forces dismissed one officer and reprimanded another for breaches of protocol and professional misconduct.
In a statement published on Sunday, the IDF emphasized that the army’s code of ethics was not violated; however, “the examination identified several professional failures, breaches of orders, and a failure to fully report the incident.”
The IDF was excoriated by media around the world, as well as by the United Nations, after the Palestinian Red Crescent Society accused it of killing 15 workers “in cold blood,” despite being marked as medical and humanitarian aid personnel.
The IDF later discovered that at least six of the individuals were members of the Hamas terrorist organization. [ Source (Read More…) ]
