CNN quoted a statement by the Israeli army admitting to killing two Palestinians and burying their bodies with a bulldozer. The Israeli army said in its statement that the two Palestinians approached the area of operations in central Gaza in a suspicious manner, so they were killed and their bodies were swept away for fear that they were carrying explosives.
Al Jazeera broadcast a video documenting the incident, where it obtained exclusive pictures showing the Israeli occupation soldiers executing Palestinian civilians as they tried to return to the northern Gaza Strip via Al-Rashid Street. The pictures showed the occupation soldiers bulldozing the bodies of the Palestinian martyrs.
