In an attempt to dispel the notion that Israel had acted improperly in the tragic incident in Gaza in which dozens were trampled to death while seeking humanitarian aid from trucks, IDF Spokesperson, Brig. Gen. Daniel Hagari made a statement to the media in which he showed new footage to support the Israeli version, proving that the IDF forces did not fire on the crowds.
The incident, which Hamas says resulted in more than 100 killed, happened in the early morning. "Some 30 trucks with humanitarian aid encountered a Palestinian mob that tried to loot the supplies. They entered the strip via the Kerem Shalom Crossing and after about 1000 feet were met with throngs, resulting in them being crushed by the vehicles. The footage clearly shows that no IDF troops were involved in the incident," Hagari said.
Hagari also turned to the hostages who have been held by Hamas since the Oct. 7 attack on the Gaza-border communities, in which more than 1000 were murdered and many were taken captive. "If you can hear me – 146 days have passed. Each day is unbearably long. Every soldier fighting in Gaza is fighting for you. This is the most important thing for the fighters. We meet families, we are committed to bringing you back," Hagari said, "Since the beginning of the campaign we have destroyed over 1000 launchers."
