“The Israelis have admitted that some of their soldiers did open-fire.”
“But they’ve also said some of those people died either as a result of those trucks running them over or as a result of a stampede.”
“All of these things could be true.”
Sky News’ Alistair Bunkell reports live from Jerusalem as over 100 people are thought to have been killed while queuing for aid in Gaza.
The catastrophe happened when a convoy of 30 aid trucks passed through an Israeli checkpoint at about 4am local time (2am UK time).
Palestinians, many of whom have struggled for food and medicines since the war began in October, began running towards the aid truck convoy, according to Israel.
IDF Lieutenant Colonel Peter Lerner said that some civilians came close to the Israeli checkpoint, at which point soldiers fired some warning shots, the BBC reported.
Lt Col Lerner said that the soldiers feared for their safety and shot at them. He called this a “limited response”.

Tom seems uninterested… no concern, no potential condemnation, just… meh.. Let's see if this tragedy gets swept under the VERY dusty side of the carpet… again..
The IDF are investigating!!!?.. 😂😂😂
The IDF continue to commit atrocities and continue to say they are 'investigating'. When are they going to publish the results to these apparent investigations – which run into the hundreds now. Or do they think we will forget, or do they think they can desensitise us by committing so many? They still haven't provided any evidence that UNRWA staff were involved in the 7 Oct attacks?!!
Everything is so unclear when the IOF commits literal massacres… when it's the other way round somehow we have "hard evidence" every time which then slowly erodes. Problem is by the time that hard evidence is debunked, the deed – is done.
Why do you think the media is talking about putin this morning. Tom is just an appologist for war crimes. Shouldnt be on lbc
"Died "?????
Only when the IDF undertakes a humanitarian operation do 100 people get murdered. You cannot write this stuff.
I do not understand those who demand the release of Israeli hostages in Gaza who are not subjected to any torture and ignore the Palestinian hostages in Israeli occupation prisons who are subjected to all forms of torture
The only time they not lying is when they’re silent.
I wonder why the IDF won't release the footage of what happened next after the aid convoy gets swamped?
NO!! Not over 100:died but KILLED….And yet the still REFUSE to call this a terrorist act, you can imagine what the west (and this LBC presenter) would have said if it was the Palestinians that did this to innocent hungry Israelis.
The IDF are investigating itself and of course the west and this LBC presenter will just go along with its findings "We investigated ourselves and found we did nothing wrong".
Sky news= Rupert Murdoch= Zionist= Israel. So this not a fair journalism. LBC is presenting Israeli view of events only🤔
Were the israelis trained by brit paratroops?
Every Democratic or undecided voter who does not withdraw their vote for Biden until his support for Israel ends has Palestinian blood on their hands. Unfortunately, this is the only form of protest that the American president will understand.
It's not only the American government and Israeli government responsible the both army irresponsible 2 and advisors responsible to and Europe responsible to o
Honestly I'm astounded from these nations totally disregard
We already know Tom's one sided views on this subject and his so called one sided investigative journalism from previous reporing of war crimes committed by Israel. He view point is Israel has the right to defend itself. So Tom you half wit, why not say it now. Nothing to say now Tom? LBC needs to sack him or ask him to move to talk tv where his intelligence level would be more suited.
"Heavily armed soldiers felt threatened by starving civilians"
The devil's army that wears diapers,
War crimes. Pure evil.
Why is Israel expected to feed Palestinians? Is Russia expected to feed Ukranians?
Disgusting headline
Yet the politicians refuse to call this for what it is, why ? However the blame and attention should fall back on the so called Muslim leaders ( dictators) what are they doing ?
The US officials can’t utter a single word or statement until they get permission from their Israeli masters. The same applies to the British officials and many Europeans, not to mention the corrupt Arab and Muslim leaders.
All western MSM had lost their last bit of humanity and credibility
Who are they trying to fool.
❤❤❤ADELANTE ISRAEL 🇮🇱 ADELANTE ❤❤❤
DISGUSTING
Tom, why do you bother taking off your IDF uniform during your LBC session every weekday? Just keep it on, we don’t mind, we know where your allegiance lies.
How many people get killed in crushes at sports events.
"Conflicting reports" really? stop lying
We can all predicted what the news coming out of Israel will be.."The IDF has investigated itself and found they did nothing wrong",
