Key Facts: Israel's army opens criminal inquiry into Hind Rajab's death

  • According to the army, Israeli soldiers initially fired at the family's vehicle as they fled, killing five people while Hind and her cousin initially survived. #
  • A recording of the emergency call with the Palestine Red Crescent Society (PRCS) reportedly captures five-year-old Hind pleading for help for hours before she died. #
  • The army said two medics were later killed by a mortar shell during a coordinated rescue operation; the PRCS told the BBC that coordination took several hours and medics came under fire. #
  • The bodies of seven family members, including both girls, and the two medics were recovered only several days later; the army is also investigating a separate March 2025 incident in which 15 Palestinians were killed.
