(Note: As I am not allowed to have opinions on this conflict here, I am posting the story without comment.)
Feb 10 (Reuters) - Relatives found the body on Saturday of a 6-year-old Palestinian girl who had begged Gaza rescuers to send help after being trapped by Israeli military fire, along with the bodies of five of her family members and two ambulance workers who had gone to save her.
The Palestine Red Crescent Society (PRCS) accused Israel of deliberately targeting the ambulance it sent to rescue Hind Rajab after she had spent hours on the phone to dispatchers begging for help with the sound of shooting echoing around.
"The occupation deliberately targeted the Red Crescent crew despite prior coordination to allow the ambulance to arrive at the site to rescue Hind," the Red Crescent said in a statement.
Israel's military did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment on the Red Crescent statement.
Family members found Hind's body along with those of her uncle and aunt and their three children still in a car near a roundabout in the Tel al-Hawa suburb of Gaza City, the official Palestinian Wafa news agency reported.
The PCRS released a photo of the ambulance, seen almost completely burned out. Al Jazeera footage of the scene appeared to show the ambulance only steps away from the car they said the family was in, a damaged black Kia Picanto riddled with bullet holes.
The plight of Hind, revealed in harrowing audio clips of her terrified conversation with rescue workers 12 days ago, underlined the impossible conditions for civilians in the face of Israel's four-month assault on Gaza.
The war began on Oct. 7 when Hamas fighters attacked Israel, killing 1,200 people and seizing 253 hostages according to Israeli tallies.
Israel's military has since overrun most of the tiny Palestinian enclave under an intense bombardment in a conflict that has killed more than 28,000 people, according to Gaza health authorities.
During the course of the war, the Israeli military has said it takes steps to avoid civilian casualties. It has faced strong international criticism over the casualty toll.
The audio clips released by the Red Crescent earlier this month recorded a call to dispatchers that was first made by Hind's teenage cousin Layan Hamadeh, saying an Israeli tank was approaching before shots rang out and she screamed.

I genuinely shudder to think how much the death toll is going to increase after the rubble is properly searched.

========
How do people living in a tent or car charge their cell phones enough to call for hours? Is there cell phone service in Gaza now?

Chalk up eight more for the kill count for which only Hamas can be blamed. There will be raving lunatics who will blame the victims of Hamas, but anyone who speaks honestly will credit Hamas for the kills.

this is so terrible! it just makes me with Hamas hadn't crossed the border, raped, tortured, and murdered, over 1200 innocent, non-combatant Israeli civilians ! They wouldn't have done that if Israel hadn't spent decades stealing their land and murdering them. The least the US can do is stay out of it, stop sending either side money and military support. |

The least the US can do is stay out of it, stop sending either side money and military support. thats right, the Jews deserved to be raped, tortured, kidnapped, and murdered... Israel is 30% Arab/Muslim, and those Arab/Muslims enjoy more freedoms than any Arab/Muslims in the middle-east, and the Palestinian territories are 0% Israeli/Jew the Palestinians are consumed with hatred of Jews and Israel, they teach it to their children so tell me who the ethnic cleansers are? and Israel can have my tax dollars, if for nothing else to prevent twats like you from pulling up a lawn chair while 7 million Jews get pushed into the Mediterranean |

It makes me wish Israel hadn't imprisonned 2 million people for 17 years with occasional incursions by the guards to murder Gazans by the thousand. While not an excuse one could imagine people growing up in that environment having no hope and seeing no other option than to escape and create mayhem. It is all on Israel. |

The people were imprisoned by Hamas.
The only thing Hamas couldn't get was weapons from Iran to shoot at Israeli civilians.
The civilians never had access to such weapons so they didn't miss a thing.

Leaving Hamas in control of Gaza was a huge mistake.
Hamas has started 5 wars and Islamic Jihad has started 2 wars.
The 70% who are considered "refugees" by Hamas don't get shit except from UNRWA-HAMAS.
This isn't much.

So each time the IDF entered Gaza they knew Hamas workers were unarmed so were fair game for murder? Sounds right. You learnt well from the SS about mass murder. Question: who guarded the border crossings into Israel and the West Bank, stopping exports, stopping imports regularly, eventually ensuring nothing but a bard amount of food to stop starvation while preventing agriculture. The tooth fairy? |

The IDF never went into Gaza unless Hamas started an actual war.
Otherwise, the IDF never went inside Gaza.
The Gazans were stuck with Hamas and Islamic Jihad, etc.
Israel always shoots at Hamas and Islamic Jihad, etc.
