War Crimes in Khuza’a, Gaza: Israel Used Palestinian Civilians as Human Shields | Global Research
Ramadan Muhammad Qadeeh said that on July 25th, Israeli soldiers raided
his home in the village. They killed his 65-year-old father at
point-blank range after he tried to tell the soldiers they were just
civilians. Then, Qadeeh said, “they ordered us to take off our clothes
and tied our hands up. They took us to one of the rooms and used us as
shields, making us stand at the windows as if we were looking outside…I
was at one window and three children from my family at another. The
soldiers then began firing around us.” There are many detailed accounts
of how Israel has used Palestinian civilians as human shields during
past military operations in Gaza.
