Israeli Soldiers Caught on Video Throwing Palestinians Off Roof During West Bank Raid
Israeli soldiers were caught on video throwing, pushing, and kicking three Palestinians off the roof of a building during a military raid in the occupied West Bank town of Qabatiya. The disturbing incident, captured in multiple verified videos, raised questions about the treatment of the Palestinians, who appeared lifeless in the footage.
The Israeli military, in response to the videos, stated that they were reviewing the matter and acknowledged that the behavior depicted did not align with their values. The White House National Security Council also condemned the video, calling it “deeply disturbing” and highlighting the need for accountability.
Reports indicated that seven Palestinians were killed during the 10-hour raid, including the three individuals seen in the video. The bodies were allegedly mutilated on the ground before being taken away by the military. The Israeli military claimed to have killed “four armed terrorists” during the operation but did not specify if the three thrown from the roof were among them.
The incident sparked outrage from the international community, with the Qabatiya municipality condemning it as a “massacre” and calling for action. Palestinian officials asserted that the victims were still alive when they were thrown from the building, labeling it as a brutal act of aggression.
The ongoing military raids in the West Bank have resulted in numerous casualties, including civilians and children, drawing criticism from human rights organizations. The case of the three men thrown from the roof has been described as a potential extrajudicial execution, raising concerns about violations of international human rights law.
The videos of the soldiers pushing the Palestinians off the roof have shocked viewers worldwide, prompting calls for accountability and justice for the victims. The incident serves as a stark reminder of the violence and brutality that continue to plague the region.
