Israeli commander indicates IDF were behind Gaza white flag shooting | ITV News
A senior commander in the Israel Defence Force (IDF) has given the strongest indication yet that Israeli forces were responsible for killing a man who was part of a group waving a white flag in Gaza, in footage broadcast by ITV News.
The IDF initially dismissed the video, which was broadcast on January 23, claiming the footage “is clearly edited and we have no way to comment“.
But in an interview with ABC News, Brig. General Dan Goldfuss, commander of the IDF 98th Division, revealed they are now investigating the incident but remained adamant his troops do not fire at civilians, adding: “There are mistakes, it is war“.
