Bodies dumped in pit after execution ‘one by one’ and buried alongside crushed ambulances and fire trucks. Silence from Starmer and co
A convoy of UN and Red Crescent officials have recovered the bodies of fifteen paramedics and rescue workers summarily executed – ‘one by one’, according to the UN – after being captured by Israeli occupation troops as they tried to rescue and treat civilians injured in an airstrike.
The bound bodies were found next to their vehicles, which had been crushed by Israeli tanks or bulldozers and also buried:
The victims’ colleagues and a large number of civilians turned out for the funeral procession for the martyrs, who were re-buried promptly in accordance with Islamic tradition:
Israel has admitted killing the men, but claimed they had fired on ‘suspicious’ vehicles which just ‘turned out’ to be emergency vehicles – a claim now made ridiculous by the evidence.
In more than a week since the murders, UK PM Keir Starmer and Foreign Secretary David Lammy have not even mentioned the atrocity, let alone condemned it – nor the almost seventy Palestinian civilians murdered just on Monday among almost a thousand since Israel collapsed the so-called ‘ceasefire’. Instead, Starmer continues to wage war on journalists and others in the UK who speak out.

Just to be clear, the IDF only informed the UN that the paramedics and rescue workers were dead (and where they had buried them) on Sunday, so contrary to what it says near the end of the above article that ‘In more than a week since the murders, UK PM Keir Starmer and Foreign Secretary David Lammy have not even mentioned the atrocity, let alone condemned it’, the Starmerfuhrer amd Lammy haven’t known they were dead for more than a week (unless they were notified by Israel that they were), and have only know since Sunday.
I haven’t done a comprehensive search, but it looks like most of the MSM have covered it, so one would have thought that one or the other, or both of them, would have said something in relation to it, but I guess their thinking is that it won’t occur to most people that they haven’t commented on the atrocity. As for Trump, I came across the following earlier (having initially seen it written out in a segment on the BBC News Channel about the episode this morning and, as such, assumed it was an IDF or Israeli goverment spokesperson that said it):
The US has said it expects “all parties on the ground” in Gaza to comply with international humanitarian law but declined to confirm whether it was carrying out its own assessment into the killing by the Israeli military of 15 people – paramedics, civil defence workers and a UN official.
Asked about the killings, state department spokeswoman Tammy Bruce said: “Every single thing that happens in Gaza is happening because of Hamas.”

So the IDF deliberate murder 15 paramedics and rescue workers – as SHE and Trump and his nazi-saluting buddies know full well – and then lie through there goddam teeth about the vehicles advancing suspiciously etc, and Trump’s state department spokeswoman pretends she/they believes the IDFs version, and then blames Hamas. Just pure evil.
