Israel also faces new allegations of war crimes with a report of another
mass killing on the Gaza village of Khuza’a. According to the Israeli
human rights group B’Tselem, Israeli troops killed fourteen Palestinians
in a day-long assault. Israeli forces reportedly shot Palestinians
waving white flags and bulldozed others still in their homes. Witnesses
also say Israeli forces opened fire on an ambulance trying to reach the
victims and used white phosphorus during the attack.
