Eight Red Crescent personnel, six Civil Defense workers and a U.N. staffer were killed in the shooting before dawn on March 23 by Israeli troops conducting operations in Tel al-Sultan, a district of the southern Gaza city of Rafah. Troops then bulldozed over the bodies along with their mangled vehicles, burying them in a mass grave. U.N. and rescue workers were only able to reach the site a week later to dig out the bodies. The Palestinian Red Crescent Society's vice president, Marwan Jilani, said the phone with the video was found in the pocket of one of its slain staffers at the scene. The Palestinian ambassador to the United Nations distributed the video to the Security Council. The Associated Press obtained the video from a U.N. diplomat on condition of anonymity because it has not been made public. Throughout, the man with the phone says over and over, "There is no God but God, and Muhammad is God's prophet" — the profession of faith that Muslims say when they fear they are about to die. Near the end of the six-minute, 40-second video, voices can be heard shouting in Hebrew. "The Jews are coming," the man said, referring to Israeli soldiers, before the video cuts off. Do you believe that these IDF military soldiers have lied now that video evidence has surfaced?

One paramedic who survived, Munzer Abed, confirmed the veracity of the video to the AP. Two block-shaped concrete structures visible in the video are also seen in a U.N. video released Sunday showing the recovery of the bodies from the site — a sign they are in the same location. One medic remains missing The Israeli military has said it opened fire on the vehicles because they were "advancing suspiciously" on nearby troops without headlights or emergency signals. One medic, Assaad al-Nassasra, has been missing since the attack, the Red Crescent said. Abed said he saw Al-Nassasra being led away blindfolded by Israeli troops. Al-Khatib said the organization has asked the military where it is holding the staffer. Al-Khatib said that the slain men had been "targeted at close range" and that a forensic autopsy report would be released soon. Will IDF release the alleged medic, Assaad al-Nassasra from its custody soon?

Tensions run high in times of war. This topic is to not justify warfare as positive or negative for its posting. What matters most, is when all protocols have been addressed by the Red Crescent workers and their vehicles demanded by the IDF that the IDF spokesman does not convey a different message than the video presents by sweeping the event under the rug. Accountability needs addressed when all the protocols required have been presented. Do you believe that an independent commission should be established to determine the rule of law for this event?
