The young man, bound by zip-tie cuffs, delivered his Israeli captors’ message but was shot as he tried to walk out of the hospital gate.

In a video taken shortly after his arrival, his eyes are wide, dazed, and scared all at once. He had something to tell the thousands sheltering at the facility.

A crowd gathered around, according to Mohammed El Helou, one of the only remaining Palestinian journalists in the hospital, and the young handcuffed man said that the Israeli military had sent him with a message.

“Get out of the hospital, you need to get out of the hospital because they are going to blow it up.”

Abu Al-Ola was killed shortly after walking out of the hospital. According to El Helou, he was shot by an Israeli soldier three times in his chest and abdomen while still inside the gates of the hospital.

Al Serr, the Nasser Hospital doctor, confirmed the account of Abu Al-Ola being killed as he left the hospital. El Helou later got footage of Abu Al-Ola’s corpse in a body bag, still robed in his PPE.

    It’s the first time I’m ashamed of my country and I hate my government and the press in my country for supporting this genocide. And the Israelis speak openly about their genocidal intentions.

    The ICJ ruled that there is plausible risk of genocide and ordered to stop killing palestinians and give humanitarian aid. Instead Israel puts out accusations without evidence and the western “civilized” countries cut off humanitarian aid. It’s aiding in genocide. They are making my country complicit in genocide.

    The atrocities started long before Okt.7 and I just don’t care about it, they have killed 30 times as many civilians at least now. And they mutilated and traumatized many times more than that. There is no justification. Especially not if you’re the vastly more powerful side.

    That sounds an awful lot like the Israeli soldiers used him as a human shield to deliver the terrorist message to the hospital.

    A two state solution is the only solution and right now I think Israel needs to pay to rebuild everything they destroyed and give back all the cultural treasures, art, and literature they took during the nakba so they could erase the history of the Palestinian people.

      The only plausible solution is actually a 3 state federation with Israeli and Palestinean representation similar to the United States in practice in which both factions have protected rights including rights to self defense and to bear arms. There’s no other way for the property transfers to happen accountably.

    When I saw this pop up yesterday, I was really hoping this was fake/a constructed narrative based around physical facts on the ground in an information restricted war zone

    I keep finding myself going “no fucking way that’s true, that has to be anti-Semitic propaganda” at stories like this, and more often than not I am proven wrong - yes it’s real, yet the truth doesn’t matter

    Most moral army in the world telling people to evacuate, then directly demonstrate that they will shoot and kill people that evacuate.

    They “warn” Palestinians where to go, and then kill them when they go there. And then you have to listen to Israelis online telling you how moral their warnings are.

    Video of Palestinians that want to leave but are scared to get killed by the IDF

    IDF started bombing the hospital

    Video directly after al nassr bombing

    Video of Al Nasr patient ward after bombing

    IDF taking scary Hamasurgeons captive:

    UPDATE (rumors unverified):

    • The IDF claimed their reason for invading the hospital (and bombing the patient ward and sniping surgeons during operations?) was that there were “corpses of hostages inside the morgue”.

    • So far no evidence of hostage corpses has been found.

    Additional testimonies from a doctor inside the hospital:

    • 1 Patient got killed and (6-8?) were injured when the patient ward was bombed

    • 3 Palestinians got shot while evacuating

    • Quadcopter with gun was used to shoot at the hospital

      There’s no hiding behind the age-old “you’re being anti-semitic!” response anymore. When the warcrimes are on the nightly news for all to see, it’s hard to argue against.

      They were.

      Edit: Not defending IDF, just saying the Nazis are pretty infamous for their crimes against humanity l.

        pretty infamous

        Spectacular point you’re making there. I wonder how many kids the Nazis executed after deploying them as messengers during ongoing military operations. I read a lot of terrible shit about the Nazis, seen thousands of images and documentary hours, but not that particular action. This is particularly disgusting.

          The Nazis were a “mixed bag” most of them were just following orders and ended up with big time PTSD. But there were Nazis that genuinely enjoyed throwing babies into ovens and even proudly bragged about it afterwards. And many other depraved sadistic acts often with torture.

          The big difference is that most IDF are there voluntarily and all seem to be very proud of their war crimes. So proud they want to broadcast them to the whole world on TikTok.

    This is severely disturbing and dystopian, I can not believe we are just letting all this happen, the same as with Ukraine.

    Earlier I was talking with my partner about these things from my safe home, far removed from these situations, and we realized this must be how the original nazis happened. It had puzzled us both, and many we had talked with in the past, how it was even possible to come to be.

    I guess now we know. This is how it comes to be.

    Feels so powerless and diminishing, but at the same time very human. Can’t realistically do more than vote locally when we can, but that’s not going to help anyone right now, or realistically even in the short term of a few years…

    It’s so heart-breaking, and it’s bizarre because we probably don’t even know a fraction of all of it…

      An excellent book to check out is They Thought They Were Free, it’s basically interviews with Germans right after WW2 about the rise of nazism.
