International news media reported that the four young victims were playing on the beach near where they live when Israeli planes fired at their location for the first time and killed them in a second bombing.
The video shows the children running away from the location of the firing only to be struck down by another shell.
According to the Palestinian ministry of health, Israeli has killed 237 people and injured 1770, over 50 of those were you ng children. The video clearly shows that Israeli gunships were targeting unarmed civilians and specifically children as this case shows.
The Israeli army spokesman said that the army is investigating the incident but blamed Hamas for it.
The US position, meanwhile echoed the Israeli position and blamed Hamas for the murder of those Children and other civilians. State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki told reporters yesterday that Israeli was not responsible for the killing of the children, rather its Hamas is the one who should be responsible. Psaki continued to say that the killing of Palestinian children is “tragic” but again she blamed Hamas for it.
On Wednesday Hamas spokesman Sami Abu Zuhri told reporters during a press conference in Gaza that Israel has “committed war crimes against the people of Gaza” he also called on the international community and the UN “To act responsibly against Israel to stop from continuing its aggression.”
Abu Zhuri also chided the Arab governments for their lack of support for the people of Gaza. He said “while the United States and the West are supporting the Israeli aggression, the Arab World is silent.”
Meanwhile talks about extending the temporary cease fire fell through after Hamas rejected the Egyptian-sponsored cease fire agreement after it became known it was one sided and favored Israel and Hamas said it was never consulted or received an official copy of the agreement. Hamas officials said that they heard about it from the news media.
