Palestinians release footage showing Israeli forces disembarking from a vehicle disguised as an ambulance during a raid on a Nablus refugee camp

The Palestinians on Sunday released unusual footage showing armed fighters in the Balata refugee camp in Nablus disembarking from a vehicle disguised as an ambulance. According to Palestinian reports, the video was filmed approximately two and a half weeks ago during an IDF raid on the camp.

On the day of the operation, Palestinians reported the deaths of two individuals, including an 80-year-old woman.

Palestinian sources explained the delayed release of the footage, saying it had been held by a local shopkeeper in Balata and only surfaced now.

    What an odd way to write an article. No link to the actual video. Who are “the Palestinians”? Is the footage showing “Israeli forces” or just “armed fighters”? I can’t find any more information about this but Al Jazeera at least has the video.

    Edit: OP also posted a link to the video in the comments.

      Added the video in the article summary. They also show the video on the site.

      Likewise I have no idea why there are zero other media outlets reporting on this. But the video leaves little to the imagination. Came across it through Franscesca Albanese.

        I found this new article on Haaretz but I can’t see the full article. It does say

        The IDF confirmed that forces, operating in the Balata Refugee Camp in Nablus about two weeks ago, arrived in a civilian ambulance.
