A Palestinian vet was killed by Israeli troops as he returned to his home in northern Gaza after the ceasefire took effect, his employer has said.
Dr Mu’ath Abu Rukbeh, who was described as a “kind” and “exceptional” vet, was killed when he unknowingly crossed Israel’s “yellow buffer zone”, which marks a withdrawal point for Israeli forces in the occupied strip, according to Sulala Animal Rescue, where he worked. He is among several Palestinians who were shot dead while crossing the boundary since the ceasefire.
