During an IDF raid on the town of Qabatiya, in Jenin, on September 19, Israeli soldiers besieged the house of Zakarneh (Zakarna) family, and attacked it with antitank rifle grenades before sumamrily executed 5 Palestinians, after blindfolding them.
The soldiers proceeded to kick the bodies off the roof of the building one by one to the street below. Once the bodies were on the ground, soldiers brought an excavator and mutilated the bodies. Once desecrated by the excavators' arm, the IDF soldiers placed the desecrated bodies in an earth-moving loader. The IDF then drove around town and paraded the desecrated bodies across the streets of Qabatiya.
The besieged house was burned by Israeli soldiers and their demolition engine destroyed partially the house. As soon as the Israeli soldiers withdrew, hundreds of young men in the town headed towards the house that had been under siege for 12 hours. They began extinguishing the fires and searching for the body of a martyr, which they found burned beyond recognition. Palestinian Red Crescent identified him as Shadi Sami Zakarneh.
According to a Sky News OSINT journalist Olive Enokido-Lineham, footage confirms IDF soldiers killed and threw four bodies off the roof. Source
At least seven Palestinians were killed by Israeli forces in the raid.
Under international law, soldiers must ensure that bodies, including those of enemy combatants, are treated properly.
7 people were killed. 8 injured, 2 in critical condition.
2 other members of the Zakarna/Zakarneh family were arrested : Mohammed Zakarna/Zakarneh and Qasim. Source
In a post on X, the Palestinian Ministry of Foreign Affairs described the act as a “crime” that exposes the Israeli army’s “brutality”.
Mustafa Barghouti, the secretary-general of the Palestinian National Initiative, told Al Jazeera that the footage had shown “absolutely savage and inhuman behaviour”."Not only [had] they shot these people and let them bleed to death, they beat them with their boots, they humiliated their bodies, they mutilated their bodies, and then they threw them from the rooftop to the ground."
“I don't know if they checked they were still alive or not when they did that, but this is such a savage behaviour and you cannot say that this is part of the war because there is no war in the West Bank. There is war from one side, military actions from one side, on a civilian population. The West Bank does not have an army, does not have even a resistance force like Hamas that is fighting Israelis, no. They have some gunmen here and there. They don't represent an army. What you see here is a grave violation of international law and Human rights first of all by this kind of use of military force against civilian population. Second by this terrible behaviour in such a town like Qabatiya today where they besieged no less than 18 children in a kindergarten. Up till this moment, they are besieged with their teachers. They cannot go home since the morning. They are besieging workers of the municipality and they are besieging journalists who don't know what to do because if they try to get out of the places they are in, they will be shot. It’s absolute savage behaviour by this Israeli army that feels absolutely unaccountable to anything; unaccountable to law; unaccountable to human rights; and unaccountable to international law. They just do whatever they want not only in Qabatiya as they did today but everywhere in the West Bank every day we hear of new crimes that they are committing.”
Gaza chief of communications at the Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor, an NGO that advocated for human rights, Muhammad Shehada, wrote: "But... but Hamas threw people off rooftops' has been one of Israel's main talking points to justify slaughtering Gazans for decades. Here, the [Israeli army], in broad daylight, throwing a Palestinian off a rooftop after they shot him today."
US National Security Council spokesperson John Kirby said if the footage is corroborated “it clearly would depict abhorrent and egregious behaviour by professional soldiers (...) We reached out immediately to our Israeli counterparts about it, and we pressed them for more details. They have assured us that they’re going to investigate this and that there will be proper accountability if it’s warranted (...) We’re going to be very eager to see what the [Israeli army] investigation finds and, as always, we expect that investigation be done thoroughly and transparently.” https://aje.io/px2nij?update=3191783
