Horrific video shows Gaza nurse shot in head through window by Israeli drone

Horrific CCTV footage from a Gaza hospital shows the moment when Palestinian nurse Marwan Abdeen was shot in the head, through a side-room window, by an Israeli drone yesterday.

Western ‘mainstream’ media have ignored it:

Marwan Abdeen: shot by an Israeli drone

Marwan Abdeen reportedly survived the attempted murder, with the bullet grazing his head and causing a relatively superficial wound:

As author Assal Rad pointed out, while Al Jazeera has mentioned the attempted murder – Abdeen apparently survived with only a superficial wound after the bullet grazed his head – western media are silent:

She added, before reports that Abdeen survived the attack:

Israel can assassinate a doctor and it’s not even a news story.

Irish Healthcare Workers 4 Palestine condemned the attack and called on government to finally take meaningful action and on supporters to lobby their political representatives:

Attacking healthcare workers is a war crime under international law. The International Committee of the Red Cross notes that:

In times of armed conflict, international humanitarian law (IHL) provides rules to protect access to health care. These rules bind States and non-State armed groups

Israel is a rogue and terror state – and Marwan Abdeen is another victim of it.
