PerpetratorsIsrael Defense Forces

On May 16, 2021, Israeli forces bombed al-Wehda street in Gaza City. The bombardment was the single deadliest of an 11-day attack on Gaza following weeks of turmoil in East Jerusalem. The al-Wehda street massacre over 40 Palestinians dead and 11 days of repeated bombing left 2500 without homes and tens of thousands temporarily displaced from their homes. The massacre has been met with a significant amount of Palestinian and international outrage due to the high number of civilian casualties in one of Gaza's most prominent residential and commercial neighbourhoods.[1][2] Furthermore, it is said that the Israeli Defence Force were not operating on any clear intelligence in this night of airstrikes.[3] Despite Israel's claims to be targeting a series of Hamas tunnels, it is alleged by Amnesty International regional director, Saleh Hijazi, that the al-Wehda street massacre was a war crime in violation of international law due to the disproportionate impact it has had on civilian life and infrastructure.[4]

Background

Context

Al-Wehda street is located in the densely populated neighbourhood of al-Rimal in Gaza City, Palestine.[5] The neighbourhood is largely residential whilst also being the centre of Gaza's commercial activity. al-Wehda street houses heavily populated multi-storey apartment buildings, malls, banks, schools and markets.[5] It is also the main street leading to Al-Shifa Hospital; the key centre for healthcare for the Palestinian population in the Gaza Strip.[6] Like the rest of the Gaza Strip, Gaza City is under an ongoing sea, land and air blockade that was imposed by Israel and Egypt in 2007. On May 16, 2021, the seventh successive day of Israel bombing the Gaza Strip, the Israeli Defence Force [IDF] launched rockets into the territory. According to Gaza's ministry of health, an excess of 248 Palestinians had been killed in the 11 day attack, including 39 women and 67 children.[7][8]

This 11-day attack on Gaza came after a series of incidents where the Israeli forces and Zionist Israeli citizens used force against Palestinians in the occupied West Bank; including but not limited to the storming of Al-Aqsa Mosque with stun grenades, tear gas and rubber coated bullets [which left more than 500 worshippers injured] and the plans of forced removal of Palestinian residents in the neighbourhood of Sheikh Jarrah in East Jerusalem.[9] Israeli officials claimed that the subsequent 11-day attack on Gaza was in response to Hamas firing rockets towards Israel. Hamas said that their firing was in response to force used in the aforementioned cases of Israeli-sanctioned violence in the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound as well as that in Sheikh Jarrah. According to the IDF, their short-range air defence system, the Iron Dome, intercepted 90% of Hamas attempts at attack.[10][11] Israel reported 12 casualties from these attacks during this period.[12] Hamas has reported 80 deaths of its members.[13]

Attacks on al-Rimal

Al-Rimal is home to many of Gaza City's professionals and businesspeople, such as doctors, university professors and civil servants. Whilst Gaza is under the political rule of Hamas, al-Rimal is popularly understood as more critical of Hamas. In past attacks on Gaza, comparatively upscale neighbourhoods such as al-Rimal have been less affected by IDF strikes. In these instances, Gaza residents have historically sought refuge in areas such as al-Rimal for safety.[14][15]

On May 12, 2021, a series of Israeli air strikes destroyed the Hanadi building in the Rimal neighbourhood. The Hanadi building was a tower with both residential and commercial tenants. An hour before this attack, Israeli surveillance planes deployed warning missiles on the tower, before its destruction. The IDF also fired an airstrike at the Al-Johara building in the al-Rimal neighbourhood. The tower housed predominantly Palestinian media outlets.[16] Also on May 12, IDF attacks destroyed al-Shorouq tower; one of the oldest and most notable media landmarks in al-Rimal. In all three instances, Israeli forces gave some indication of warning of the impending attacks.[17][18] It is alleged that all the towers were housing Gaza's fighting factions and thereby justified the attacks by the IDF. Their destruction caused damage to a great number of nearby facilities in the neighbourhood.[19]

Details of the massacre

Map

On Sunday, May 16, 2021 (the seventh day of attacks), just after midnight, the Israeli military carried out a series of raids on al-Wehda Street in the central Gaza Strip.[20] The IDF launched what Al Jazeera described as "an hour-long rain of 150 rockets" at the Gaza Strip,[21] with Israeli shelling continuing on al-Wedha street until the early hours of dawn, resulting in the death of over 40 citizens, and the damaging of various government ministries. [22][23][5] At least 11 advanced precision guided missiles were sent along several hundred meters of Al-Wehda street in al-Rimal. The entire neighbourhood was hit more than 20 times.[24][5] The IDF gave no warning or indication that they had planned to attack al-Wehda.[25][5] According to Israeli forces, the IDF were targeting "underground military infrastructure"[26] that was located in tunnels under al-Wehda street. They argue that the bombs were designed to penetrate the ground first before detonating.[5] For Palestinians, this was the deadliest night of the series of attacks.[27]

The attack on al-Wedha st directly brought down three residential buildings belonging to the Abu al-Ouf and al-Kolaq families.[28] In total, 46 people living in these buildings died. In addition to demolishing the residential buildings, the attack left many buildings surrounding al-Wehda damaged, including a clinic that treated trauma and burns.[29]

Additionally, the airstrikes on al-Wehda street caused major damage to infrastructure which subsequently obstructed the primary access point to al-Shifa Hospital.[30][31]

Victims of the massacre

Abu al-Ouf Family

The Abu al-Ouf family lived on al-Wedha street in a building that housed 37 people. Thirteen members of the Abu al-Ouf family were killed in the attack. Omar Abu al-Ouf, 17, is the only surviving member of the family. He was stuck under rubble for twelve hours, until he was rescued from the debris.[32] His father, Dr Ayman Abu al-Ouf, 50, was the head of internal medicine at the nearby Al-Shifa Hospital, and was in charge of managing the coronavirus response in Gaza.[33] It is said that he was buried under rubble for almost 12 hours.[34] Ayman's father, also killed, was a medical doctor too.[35] Names of the Abu al-Ouf family victims:[36]

Ishkontana Family

Riad Ishkontana, 42, lived above Dr Abu al-Ouf. He and his daughter Suzi survived the attack. His wife, and four other children were killed:[37][36]

al-Kolaq Family

31 members of the al-Kolaq family lived across two neighbouring apartment blocks on al-Wedha street, both of which were destroyed in the attacks by the IDF on May 16th.[38] The family, located three building down from the Ishkontana and Abu al-Ouf families, suffered 23 casualties from the attack, including 8 from the one apartment building, and 14 from the other.[39] A third family house was damaged during the 11 day attack, and is due to be demolished.[40] Four generations of the family were murdered.

Names of the Kolaq family victims: [36]

In total, only 6 members of the al-Kolaq family survived the massacre. Azzam al-Kolaq, 42, and his older brother, Awni al-Kolaq, survived. As did Abu Salim al-Kolak, and Shoukry al-Kolak, who was buried under rubble for more than 12 hours and broke his ribs.[41][42] He brought his wife and children to his family's building that night because he thought that it would be safer.[5]

Responses to the massacre

Isreal's response

Israel said its strikes were carefully targeting Hamas tunnels and that all bombs on May 16th hit their intended targets.[5] According to a senior Israeli military official, the destruction of the residential buildings, and the high civilian death-count was an unanticipated outcome in their mission to destroy Hamas' underground military command centre, as the munition used was especially for a precise targeted attack to avoid high civilian casualty.[43] He said that the collapse of the underground military target is what caused the collapse of the nearby buildings, and that the IDF had carried out similar airstrikes of a similar nature in equally dense areas, the outcomes of which saw fewer civilian casualties.[44] It is for this reason that Israeli officials said they didnt provide any warning of the bombing, as per the laws of war.[5] Israel has accused Hamas of "using civilians as human shields" in their hiding of its leaders and operations, which is likely in violation of the laws of war.[45][5]

A New York Times investigation suggests that the IDF had limited intelligence on the target of their attack, as they did not know the size or exact location of the Hamas command centre before they bombed it. The Israeli military has not provided evidence of what it says was the Hamas command centre, whilst claiming that the three affected buildings were not attacked. It is alleged that bombing of this nature in a civilian-populated area is a war crime.[5]

Hamas' response

Hamas, Gaza's governing body, affirms that its leaders are not in hiding, and thus Israel's reasons for bombing of civilian buildings suspected of hiding Hamas leaders is unjustified and untruthful.[46] Hamas also denies the existence of a command centre on al-Wehda street, which was Israel's declared target.[5] In an interview with VICE News, Hamas leader, Yahya Sinwar condemned Israel's illegal occupation of Gaza and Israel's disproportionate arsenal of weaponry in its war with Gaza and Hamas. Hamas maintains that its actions are acts of legitimate resistance of a liberation group fighting occupation.[47]

International response

UN motions blocked

On May 17, the United States blocked a motion by the United Nations Security Council to end the violence in Gaza and called for a ceasefire. In one week, the U.S blocked the motion three times refusing to condemn Israel’s military response. Negotiations were led by Norway, China and Tunisia.[48]

International solidarity protests

The attacks on Gaza immediately sparked off protests globally.

Weapons in the massacre

When asked by Associated Press, the Israeli military did not respond when asked what bombs were used in the al-Wehda Street strikes.[49] Majority of the missiles fired during the 11-day bombings in Gaza include bombs dropped from sophisticated F-16 and F-35 world class, American-made fighter jets. Missiles that were fired include 155mm artillery shells designed to collapse their targets. Majority of the weapons found in the aftermath of the bombings are American-made.[50]

Gaza police suggest that it is likely that GBU-31s packed with 430 kilograms of explosives were likely responsible for the attack on the al-Kolaq homes and the al-Wedha massacre. This bomb is the heaviest used by militaries on a regular basis, used both for large buildings and underground targets, as it is designed to carry a powerful blast. Consequently, careful intelligence and surveillance is necessary before carrying out an attack with such weapons, as the devastation is typically severe and wide-reaching within civilian areas. At least four of these bombs were dropped within close-proximity to the apartment buildings.[51][5] According to Gaza police investigations on the bomb fragments from al-Wedha street, two had serial numbers "76301" identifying them as manufactured by Boeing Co in the United States.[5] In a statement in response to questions about the bombing, Boeing said, “In accordance with U.S. law, the U.S. government authorizes and provides strict oversight for all defense exports.”[52]

Israeli military footage shows IDF troops loading Mark-80 series bombs, loaded with American-made Joint Direct Attack Munition (JDAM guidance kits), which allow bombs to strike with precision using GPS.[5]

US approval of weapons sale

Since the beginning of the attacks on Gaza critics brought attention to the US for their unwavering support of Israel which includes the $3.8 billion in annual military funding that Washington provides to the Israeli government annually.[53]

During the height of the attacks, the Biden administration approved the sale of $735million in 2,000-pound Mark 84s, GBU-31 JDAM kits and GBU-39 bombs which would replenish IDF stocks of these weapons.[54] These were the majority of the type of bombs used on Palestinian civilians at the time.

On May 5 it was reported that the sale of these precision-guided weapons would go ahead, which raised red flags for some Democrats in the House of Representatives opposing the decision. Rep Ilhan Omar, a member of the House of Foreign Affairs Committee said, “It would be appalling for the Biden Administration to go through with $735 million in precision-guided weaponry to Netanyahu without any strings attached in the wake of escalating violence and attacks on civilians".[55]

Omar added, “It is unconscionable that, in the middle of a violent conflict that has taken the lives of over 200 people, including over 60 children, that we would continue to sell weapons to one of the parties committing those human rights abuses. Let’s be clear: these are the exact bombs being used to kill children in Gaza right now. This is the worst possible timing for us to be sending munitions that are being dropped on schools, refugee camps, media offices, and COVID clinics in Gaza. But let’s make no mistake – even if the current escalation wasn’t raging, Congress should be questioning the sales of these types of weapons to Israel—and any country in the world that has committed human rights abuses. The United States should be doing everything in our power to bring about an immediate end to this conflict and the carnage it has caused, not continuing to sell Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu the very bombs used to kill Palestinian children”.[56]

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Rashida Tlaib & Bernie Sanders contest sale

On May 19, at the peak of the attacks, Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez led the efforts to block US arm sales to Israel.[57] Together with representatives Mark Pocan and Rashida Tlaib, Ocasio-Cortez led the introduction of a House resolution opposing the sale of $735 million in American-made weapons to the Israeli government. In a statement, Ocasio-Cortez said, “At a time when so many, including President Biden, support a ceasefire, we should not be sending ‘direct attack’ weaponry to Prime Minister Netanyahu to prolong this violence.” She also added, “For decades, the U.S. has sold billions of dollars in weaponry to Israel without ever requiring them to respect basic Palestinian rights. In doing so, we have directly contributed to the death, displacement and disenfranchisement of millions."[58]

Michigan Representative Rashida Tlaib, who is Palestinian-American, said, “The harsh truth is that these weapons are being sold by the United States to Israel with the clear understanding that the vast majority of them will be used to bomb Gaza. Approving this sale now, while failing to even try to use it as leverage for a ceasefire, sends a clear message to the world – the U.S. is not interested in peace, and does not care about the human rights and lives of Palestinians. You cannot claim to support human rights and peace on Earth and continue to back the extremist Netanyahu regime, it’s that simple."[59]

Upon Biden's visit to Detroit, Tlaib confronted Biden directly, stating, "The U.S. cannot continue to give the right-wing [Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin] Netanyahu government billions each year to commit crimes against Palestinians. Atrocities like bombing schools cannot be tolerated, much less conducted with U.S.-supplied weapons."[60]

Former Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders introduced a legislation in May to block the US arms sale to Israel amidst the ongoing bombing of the Gaza Strip. He said, “At a moment when US-made bombs are devastating Gaza, and killing women and children, we cannot simply let another huge arms sale go through without even a congressional debate.” [61] He added. “I believe that the United States must help lead the way to a peaceful and prosperous future for both Israelis and Palestinians. We need to take a hard look at whether the sale of these weapons is actually helping do that, or whether it is simply fueling conflict.”[62]

UK drone factory boycott

On May 19, a boycott of the drone factory owned by Elbit System subsidiary UAV Tactical Systems took place in Leicester. The boycott was led by members of Palestine Action.[63] The facility is responsible for manufacturing unmanned aerial vehicles used in the IDF bombardment of Palestine. The group took to the roof to protest the stopping of weapons manufacturing. The protests lasted for six days.[64]

Italian dockworkers protest

On May 17, Italian dockworkers refused to load a shipment of arms headed for Israel. The staff of workers in the Tuscan City of Livorno discovered that the ship was headed for Israel.[65] The workers refused to load weapons onto the ship. Unione Sindacale di Base (USB) member Massimo Mazza said about the shipment “We refused to load that ship because we don’t want to operate on ships carrying death. We don’t want to be called accomplices in giving weapons to those who are killing unarmed civilians, as Israel is doing now."[66]
