I learned that when a civil defense crew came to find the bodies left under the rubble of the house they shared in Gaza City’s al-Daraj neighborhood which was bombed in August, they didn’t find any human remains.
This suggests Israel might have used special munitions – like thermobaric bombs – that can vaporize human bodies.
In April, the Euro-Mediterranean Human Rights Monitor issued a report calling for a probe into similar atrocities.
“An international committee of experts must be established to look into the weapons Israel has been using as part of its genocide in the Gaza Strip, ongoing since 7 October 2023, including the potential use of bombs that produce such high heat that victims’ bodies evaporate,” the report said.
