Airwars assessment
On Sunday May 12th 2024, a 43 year old man, Muhammed Misbah Hassan Abu Hamda, was reportedly killed as a result of alleged Israeli gunfire in the vicinity of the Rafah crossing.
In a tweet sharing news of various incidents from the same day, the account @az_za98 posted to X/ Twitter to further report the death of Muhammed Misbah Hassan Abu Hamda.
An image was shared to X/ Twitter by the account @Tufan_ALaqssa of a white plastic body bag with the caption asking to gain the attention of Muhammed’s family in order to identify him to ‘expedite his burial’. The post also noted that Muhammed’s body was currently resting at the Kuwait Specialised Hospital awaiting burial. Hamad Housing Compound also posted to Facebook to request for Muhammed’s death to be communicated with his family so that he can be buried. He also shared that there is currently no morgue, so bodies were being stored in the hospital.
Airwars has graded the attribution of this incident as a single source claim as only one source attributed the incident to Israeli forces, with this source then repeated in what appeared to be circular reporting. However, as multiple sources mention the civilian harm, the civilian harm status has been graded as “fair”.
The local time of the incident is unknown.
