Airwars assessment
On November 2nd 2023, two members of the Civil Defense working as rescuers were injured after an alleged Israeli drone strike hit their excavator vehicle while they were attempting to rescue casualties from under a house in Jabalia refugee camp.
The Shehab Agency reported that they were injured by a “reconnaissance plane” bombing their excavator.
They were rescuing victims from an earlier strike on a house in Jabalia. Airwars has assessed the earlier incident in ISPT0826.
A photo shared by the Shehab Agency shows one of the rescuers with his shirt off being carried on a stretcher into a hospital with other rescuers covered in blood. This is part of a larger incident in Jabalia refugee camp that day.
Though no sources specifically identified a perpetrator, given the description of the incident as resulting from a targeted attack and likely double-tap strike, and the wider context of the events Airwars has attributed the claims to Israeli forces, and has categorised the incident as a ‘single source claim’ to account for ambiguity.
The local time of the incident is unknown.
Geolocation notes
Reports of the incident mention the neighbourhood of the Jabalia Refugee Camp (مخيم جباليا), for which the generic coordinates are: 31.538711, 34.495107. Due to limited satellite imagery and information available to Airwars, we were unable to verify the location further.
