Videos show Israeli soldiers destroying homes, mosques, bulldozing Palestinian graves
In a disturbing revelation, videos circulated on social media by Israeli soldiers have shown graphic evidence of “war crimes” committed in Gaza during the ongoing Israeli onslaught that began last Oct. 7.
The footage has sparked outrage, depicting acts of violence and destruction carried out by Israeli forces against Palestinian civilians and their properties.
The videos, which were quickly shared by activists across social media platforms, include footage of Israeli soldiers arresting individuals in Gaza and destroying a mosque.
Other clips reveal horrifying scenes of Palestinian bodies left in the streets to be scavenged by stray dogs.
One particularly shocking video shows Israeli military vehicles bulldozing Palestinian graves in a blatant violation of the sanctity of the deceased.
In other clips, soldiers can be heard laughing and celebrating as they blow up homes belonging to Gaza residents.
According to the latest figures from the Government Media Office in Gaza, Israel's offensive on Gaza has completely destroyed 610 mosques, partially damaged 214 others, and leveled over 150,000 residential units. An additional 80,000 homes have been rendered uninhabitable, and 200,000 more have sustained partial damage.
Israel has continued its brutal offensive on the Gaza Strip following an attack by the Palestinian group Hamas last Oct. 7, despite a UN Security Council resolution calling for an immediate cease-fire.
The onslaught has resulted in over 40,200 Palestinian deaths, mostly women and children, and nearly 93,000 injuries, according to local health authorities.
An ongoing blockade of Gaza has led to severe shortages of food, clean water, and medicine, leaving much of the region in ruins.
Israel faces accusations of genocide at the International Court of Justice, which has ordered a halt to military operations in the southern city of Rafah, where over 1 million Palestinians had sought refuge before the area was invaded on May 6.
