An ITV News cameraman who filmed the fatal shooting of an unarmed Palestinian civilian, waving a white flag in a Gaza 'safe zone', was shot dead. The IDF initially claimed the footage was edited, but ITV News obtained a continuous recording of the incident, which shows the individuals unarmed and kneeling to surrender before being executed from the back by IDF soldiers. Francesca Albanese, UN Special Rapporteur on the occupied Palestinian territories, described the event as 'a televised war crime'. The IDF is reviewing the shooting, and the incident has raised questions about its legality and classification as a war crime.
After Israel accused @itvnews that their footage showing the IDF killing a man with a white flag was "clearly edited" itvNEWS published a new unedited video. https://t.co/TRJGEl5sP9
The IDF knew ITV News wouldn't just lie about what its own footage contained. They knew it was just a normal edit for time on TV and the unedited version would come out in a few days. They only denied it to put a wobble on the immediate first-day impact of the clip on the public. https://t.co/gS0W6wGJiC
🇵🇸🇮🇱‼️🚨SHAMELESS: “The IDF said the video is clearly edited” So ITV News got another video showing: 1) IDF lied about the video 2) The IDF shot civilians with white flags, after they gave an interview. So the shooter watched them do the interview and waited for the end. 1/ https://t.co/sFOikQnb2a
"The IDF used this pause in filming to raise doubts. 'The video is clearly edited,' they said in a statement. ITV News has now obtained another video of the shooting and this recording is continuous." https://t.co/3jvxvdhYCK
The IDF claimed that the footage of the man being murdered whilst waving a white flag was 'clearly edited' ITV news has now released a new video of the war crime and this time it is continuous. https://t.co/Hpn4kd2vwM

Truly harrowing ITV News interview and video of an innocent #Palestinian civilian, brandishing a white flag in a #Gaza ‘safe zone’, as he was shot dead in cold blood by the Israeli army. Does the Minister think this constitutes a #WarCrime? https://t.co/53QZFqfaCC
The Israeli army posted a doctored video alleging the elimination of combatants. But their own footage shows said individuals unarmed, raising their hands up & kneeling down to surrender before IDF soldiers execute them from the back. https://t.co/SPDm9AVnmf
