Last month, the mobile phone video of the last moments of 15 Palestinian medical personnel and rescue workers who was killed by Israeli forces in Gaza appears to be contradictory to the details of the incident presented by the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF).
About seven minutes of video, about which the Palestinian Hilal -e -Ahmar Society (PRCS) said on Saturday that the killed worker was found from Rafat Rizwan’s mobile phone, apparently filmed inside a moving car.
At night a red fire engine and clearly marked ambulances are seen running with headlights and shining emergency lights.
Palestinian Hilal Ahmar said Saturday that his last moments could be seen in a video received by a rescue worker’s cellphone with other rescue workers.
According to the UN and Palestinian Hilal Ahmar, the aid workers were among the 15 human rights activists killed in Israeli forces’ attack on March 23.
As can be seen in the video, the vehicles stop together on the side of the road and the two uniforms are out.
The sound of two medical personnel is heard in the video – one is saying ‘car, car’, and the other answering: Looks like this is an accident. ‘
After a few seconds the bullets are fired and the screen turns dark.
Hilal Ahmar said he received a video on Rafat Rizwan’s phone, one of the dead rescue workers. The footage exposes the truth and eliminates this ‘false statement’.
Later on Saturday, Red Crescent spokesman Nabel Farsakh told reporters that Israeli soldiers fired ‘cowardly and cowardly’ on medical staff.
Farsakh said, “Then we heard the soldiers clearly speaking Hebrew.”
Hamas described the video in a statement Saturday as a “tragic evidence of the brutality of occupation”.
Hamas said, “It also shows a deliberate attempt to hide the crime by burying criminals in mass graves and hiding the truth.”
The dead included eight Hilal Ahmar personnel, six members of the Gaza Civil Defense Agency and a UN agency employee for Palestinian refugees.
Their bodies were found buried near the southern city of Rafah, Gaza, which was declared a mass grave by the UN Office for Human Affairs (Ocha).
Israeli forces targeted the first team early March 23, Ocha said. In the subsequent hours, additional rescue and rescue teams that were looking for their colleagues were also targeted in a series of attacks.
According to Hilal Ahmar, the convoy was dispatched to the emergency calls of citizens who were bombed in Rafah.

In the video, a medical staff worker who records the scene can be heard while reading the word evidence.
It is also heard saying, ‘Mom, forgive me because I have chosen this way to help people.’
He adds: ‘God accept my testimony and forgive me.’
Before the footage ends, they can be heard citing Israeli soldiers saying, ‘Jews are coming, Jews are coming.
After a few seconds a male voice is heard in the Hebrew without a foreign accent: ‘Wait, we are coming. We are not responsible – you are responsible.
It is not clear the identity of the speaker and who they are addressing.
The killing of rescue workers is being condemned internationally.
In the Palestinian territories, OCHA chief Jonathan Vital said the bodies of humanitarian workers were ‘in their uniforms, while they were wearing gloves.’

The UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Vulkar Turkey condemned the attack, saying it raised concerns about the Israeli military’s possible ‘war crimes’.
Turkey told the UN Security Council on Thursday, “I am surprised by the recent deaths of 15 medical staff and humanitarian activists, which are further concern over the Israeli military’s war crimes commission.”
The Israeli military said its troops did not attack any ambulance, but fired at the ‘terrorists’ coming to the suspected vehicles.
But the footage released by Hilal Ahmar on Saturday defies the claims of the Israeli army, in which ambulances and emergency lights appear to be shining.
