The Ministry of Health reports that dozens of wounded were admitted to Al Shifa Hospital.
The channel's correspondent claims that the attack was carried out by an Israeli helicopter. This information is confirmed by employees of the NGO Euro-Mediterranean Human Rights Monitor, citing “preliminary testimony.”
On March 8, the Israeli Armed Forces released a statement that Israeli troops did not open fire on a humanitarian convoy in the Gaza Strip on February 29, but began shooting at “a number of suspects” who approached the security forces and posed a threat to them.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said that the IDF will “get” to the top leadership of the Palestinian Hamas movement.
