Israel has spent decades telling the world that every civilian it kills was either a terrorist or a “human shield.”
But what does that claim mean when their soldiers execute paramedics and bury them in mass graves?
A new report reveals that on March 23, Israeli forces in Rafah killed 15 Palestinian medics and rescue workers in a series of deliberate attacks.
These were not combatants.
• Operating in clearly marked ambulances
• Killed one by one, not in a chaotic firefight
One was found with his hands tied behind his back, proof of an extrajudicial execution.
The IDF claims they fired on a “suspicious vehicle.” That lie evaporates under scrutiny: how do you explain the hand-tied medic?
This is not a one-off. The same army claims that Hamas uses “human shields,” while Israeli soldiers have been caught on video tying civilians to vehicles, forcing children into buildings, and following orders to use the “mosquito protocol” — IDF slang for sending Palestinian captives ahead to trigger traps. Even Haaretz now reports that nearly every IDF unit in Gaza used human shields as routine.
When the IDF kills doctors, aid workers, and children, they call it “self-defense.” When Palestinians die, they're retroactively labeled Hamas, or human shields, or “suspicious.”
This is how the narrative is manipulated: not with facts, but with framing that assumes every Palestinian is guilty by proximity.
So ask yourself: when the army claiming everyone it kills is a human shield is also the one executing medics, what credibility is left?
