The United States has asked Israel for an investigation “urgent“to clarify the death of Hind Rajaba girl of only 6 years old who died after an Israeli bombing in the Gaza Strip after making several calls for help from the vehicle where he was, surrounded by deceased relatives.

The spokesperson for the United States Department of State, Matthew Miller, explained that the news “It’s devastating” and that they hope to see “results” of the investigation as soon as possible, which should include “measures for accountability, as appropriate.” “It’s just a devastating story and a heartbreaking end for this girl. There have been thousands of other children who have died as a result of this conflict and they are all a tragedy“Miller said in a press conference.

Paramedics from the Red Crescent found the car belonging to the minor’s family with the shattered dashboard and bullet holes on the sides. Hind’s body was inside the car and both his uncle, his wife and his four children had injuries from gunshots and bombings.

The ambulance with the two members of the emergency service, Ahmad al Madun and Yousef Zeino, who moved to rescue the minor was found burned just a few meters from the car. For this reason, the Palestinian Red Crescent denounced the deliberate bombing of its team and asked for international protection.
