'Hamas shot Thai workers in the head, some were tortured'
The forensic evidence collector in Israel has revealed that many of the Thai workers killed in the Hamas attack had been shot in the head.
A news reporter from Voice of America (VOA) in Israel interviewed officials overseeing the identification of bodies of slain individuals after the gruesome attack by Hamas militants on October 7. They said they found that the bodies of some Thai workers had been subjected to torture.
From the interviews with the Israeli officials at the Churra base, it was revealed that the Thai workers who lost their lives and were sent to this location were agricultural labourers for the communities in Israel, known as kibbutzim.
Currently, the bodies of the deceased are still being delivered for inspection by the officials every day, despite the fact that the Hamas attack and the killing of the victims occurred over 25 days ago.
Israel has said that the attack by Hamas on October 7 killed 1,400 people, and 826 bodies had been identified so far.
Natha Ketz, the official at the Churra base, told VOA that among the bodies, some were foreign workers from various countries. He mentioned that last week he had received the bodies of around 8 to 10 Thai workers who were working in agricultural areas near the Gaza Strip.
"I received their bodies, and at that time I saw that their hands were tied behind their backs... They were in a kneeling position, with bullet holes in their heads," Ketz said.
Speaking about Hamas, the official said that the group "kills and destroys everything in its path... regardless of whether they are Israeli citizens or not.”
