El ejército israelí no sondará las muertes de Gaza
El ejército israelí ha decidido no pedir una punta de prueba disciplinaria en la matanza de 21 civiles palestinos en noviembre de 2006.
Los hombres, las mujeres y los niños muertos incluyeron por lo menos a 13 miembros de la familia de Athamneh, entre ellos una uno-año-vieja muchacha. Dañaron a otras 35 personas mientras que 12 cáscaras pesadas de la artillería de 155 milímetros pulsaron la ciudad del norte de Gaza de Beit Hanoun por varios minutos. Los grupos israelíes de las derechas demandados ayer allí eran una “cultura de la impunidad” en las fuerzas israelíes de la seguridad, después de que la decisión fuera anunciada.
This week the Israel Defence Forces’ (IDF) adjutant-general announced that an extremely rare computer malfunction had caused the shells to strike 500 metres from their intended target, a field that had been used by militants to fire missiles at Israel. There was therefore no reason to charge any soldier with negligence or any other offence, Brigadier-General Avihai Mandelblit decided. The announcement did not consider the gunners’ supposed failure to notice their shells going astray.
The Beit Hanoun bombardment followed an incident in June 2006 in which seven members of the picnicking Ghalya family were killed by an explosion on a north Gaza beach. The Israeli human rights group B’tselem yesterday said the Beit Hanoun decision reflected a “culture of impunity” in the forces.
“We have to ask ourselves whether the IDF’s internal investigations meet the basic standards of international law,” said spokeswoman Sarit Michaeli.
