"I witnessed the Israeli Defense Forces shooting at the crowds of Palestinians," said Anthony Aguilar, who worked with the U.S.-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) after his military career, resigning after witnessing these incidents. He described the use of heavy weaponry against unarmed civilians: "I witnessed the Israeli forces firing a main gun tank round from the Merkava tank into a crowd of people, destroying a car of civilians that was simply driving away from the site," he said. The GHF rejected the allegations as "categorically false" in a statement to the BBC, describing Aguilar as "a disgruntled former contractor who was terminated for misconduct."
