Israeli army found its soldiers guilty of killing hostages in Hamas custody

The Israeli army on Saturday declared its soldiers guilty of the killings of three Israeli hostages in Gaza who were held by Hamas following preliminary investigations.

This is not the first time the Israeli army has admitted that its soldiers were responsible for mistaken attacks that killed troops in what it calls "friendly fire." The army admitted earlier this week that 20 soldiers had been killed in "friendly fire" in the Gaza Strip since the start of the ground operation in the narrow enclave at the end of October.
