¿Increíble noticia? En efecto, y por eso no es cierta. Ha sido el doctor gazatí Abul Aish que hace unas semanas lloraba la muerte de sus hijas por la televisión hebrea y exigía una investigación oficial el que ha dado las gracias al ejército israelí después de que éste presentase las conclusiones.
On that Friday (Jan. 16), the force came under sniper and mortar fire in an area laden with explosives and IEDs (improvised explosive devices). The force identified and located the source of fire from a house adjacent to that of the doctor’s, and in response, opened fire. During this defensive fire, suspicious figures were identified in the upper level of Dr. Abu El-Eish’s house and were thought to be spotters who directed the Hamas sniper and mortar fire. Upon assessing the situation in the field while under heavy fire, the commander of the force gave the order to open fire on the suspicious figures. It is from this fire, that the three daughters of Dr. Az A-Din Abu El-Eish were killed.
Following the opening of fire, screams were heard from the direction of the house, and the IDF immediately halted all fire. Only later was it understood that this was, in fact, the house of Dr. Abu El-Eish.
El doctor ha respondido que todos cometemos errores y ha agradecido el apoyo recibido por tantos israelíes.
Dr. Ezzeldeen Abu al-Aish, who lost three daughters and a niece in an Israel Defense Forces strike in the Gaza Strip last month, responded Wednesday to an IDF statement confirming that it was Israeli fire that killed his daughters, thanking those responsible for investigating the incident and saying that "we all make mistakes, and we don't repeat them."
Yo creo que no sería tan indulgente si disparasen contra mi casa porque vieron "figuras sospechosas" y la consecuencia fuera tres de mis hijos muertos. Hay errores que se les llama "crímenes", y si cuando oyeron los gritos detuvieron el fuego inmediatamente significa que podrían haberse esperado a comprobar antes de disparar. El incidente es aún menos excusable si el contexto es una ofensiva que Israel no debería haber llevado a cabo en primer lugar porque no va a traer nada bueno.
