Leaked video shows Israeli strikes killing 4 unarmed civilians

The recently leaked footage revealing the tragic killing of four unarmed Palestinian youths in Han Yunus by an Israeli drone strike has sparked global outrage.

The footage shared by Al Jazeera shows the youths moments before a bomb fatally struck them, capturing the gravity of the situation. This action has drawn severe criticism internationally.

American radio host Alex Jones, responding to the incident, said, "Israel has lost the high ground. This is not war. It is robotic mass genocide. If you support Israel, you should not support the random killing of civilians. Israel is committing suicide with actions like this."

Palestinian political analyst Yousef Munayyer commented on the drone footage, stating, "Outrageous even after months of outrages. This video shows an Israeli military drone literally stalking four unarmed civilians, posing no threat and eliminating them one after the other!"

Author Assal Rad, specializing in Middle Eastern history, addressed the issue of international responsibility, saying, "Have we ever seen so many war crimes take place right before our eyes? Any country still providing weapons and aid to Israel is complicit in these crimes."

Whistleblower Edward Snowden, emphasizing the global significance of these events, stated, "Everyone in the world needs to see this. Note that this footage permits no room for 'it was a mistake,' showing repeated, specifically targeted strikes on the unarmed and even wounded. The sort of behavior the (International Court of Justice) ICJ explicitly forbid in the genocide ruling against Israel."

Since the beginning of Israeli strikes on Oct. 7, the Palestinian civilian death toll has been devastating. Reports confirm over 31,000 Palestinian casualties, including at least 13,500 children and 9,000 women, with hospitals and educational facilities being targeted.

Violence has also escalated in the occupied West Bank and East Jerusalem, with attacks by Israeli forces and illegal Jewish settlers resulting in 434 Palestinian deaths.
