The Israeli military stated on Wednesday that troops "fired at a vehicle that was approaching them," marking the first time Israel has admitted shooting at the car in which five-year-old Hind Rajab was killed in January 2024. The military announced a criminal investigation into her death, citing alleged failures in the coordination of the Palestine Red Crescent ambulance movement. Rajab's death, along with her family members, occurred after their car was hit by over 300 bullets while attempting to follow Israeli orders to leave Gaza City.
