Israel's military has announced it will investigate the killings of 5-year-old Hind Rajab and her family, as well as 15 Palestinian paramedics, in Gaza. This marks the first criminal investigations into troop conduct in the region, following international outcry over the incidents. However, the military has decided not to probe three other attacks that killed aid workers from World Central Kitchen and Doctors Without Borders.
Israel's military has completed reviews of 150 incidents of troop conduct in Gaza and made decisions on the five cases in question. The investigations come amid Israel's ongoing campaign in Gaza, which has resulted in the deaths of over 73,000 people, including tens of thousands of women and children, according to the territory's Health Ministry. Rights groups and U.N. commissions have condemned these actions.
