Airwars assessment
In the early hours of June 21st 2024, a projectile allegedly fired by an Israeli tank or a gunshot killed Muhammad Adel Ghaboun in the al-Shakoush area in Mawasi, northwest of Rafah.
Two sources noted that Muhammad was living in Rafah as a displaced person when he was killed, with al-Ayyam news reporting that Muhammad “was martyred after being hit by a bullet fired by an Israeli tank while in his tent in the al-Skahoush area.” Reporting on the day of Muhammad’s killing, al-Ayyam wrote that “a surprise bombardment” had “targeted the tents of the displaced” in the al-Skahoush area, “leading to a state of chaos in the tents, and a mass displacement towards the north.”
Salama Ghaboun Abu Adi, Taysha Aysha, and another family member posted on Facebook to honour Muhammad, and wished condolence messages to the victim’s mother and father on their loss.
Where sources have identified a belligerent, all sources attributed the incident to the Israeli military, with some sources referring to an Israeli tank while others mentioned gunshots.
The incident occured around dawn.
