According to the UN human rights office, Israeli troops "summarily killed" at least 11 unarmed Palestinians in Gaza in yet another war crime.

The OHCHR office in Ramallah, West Bank, maintained the killings were carried out this week in Gaza City's Rimal neighborhood.

It said on Wednesday it had received "disturbing information" indicating that Israeli occupation forces (IOF) "summarily killed at least 11 unarmed Palestinian men," adding that the men were murdered in front of their families.

The report added that the occupation forces ordered women and children into a room "and either shot at them or threw a grenade into the room, reportedly seriously injuring some of them, including an infant and a child."

The incident, according to OHCHR, "raises alarm about the possible commission of a war crime."

An Israeli official denied the accusations, calling them "blood libel" without any investigation into the matter.

Shocking testimonies expose Israeli killings, field executions in Gaza

According to horrifying testimonies gathered by the Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor (EMM), Israeli occupation forces (IOF) carried out field executions against civilians in Palestinian homes in Gaza.

Earlier reports from Al Mayadeen sources corroborate that Israeli forces executed more than 15 Palestinians at the Annan family residence near Burj al-Jalaa in the northern part of Gaza City.

Israeli occupation forces left behind several martyrs and wounded several others, all in front of children and women in the residence.

In this context, the Euro-Mediterranean Human Rights Observatory received shocking testimonies about field executions committed by the Israeli occupation forces against civilians during house raids in the border areas of Gaza.

The organization indicated that the victims included members of the displaced families of Annan, al-Ashi, al-Shurafa, who were shot to death. There are also reports of other individuals who remain in critical condition and an elderly man who has been taken away by soldiers with an unknown fate.

It also noted that among the 27 women and children trapped in the house, some are suffering from serious injuries, including amputated limbs. They have issued pleas to the International Committee of the Red Cross for coordination to evacuate them from the location to save their lives.

According to EMM, Israeli forces stationed in military vehicles or high-rise structures are conducting sniping operations against Palestinian residents who are either inside their houses or attempting to move within a residential area in search of protection. The rights group cited the recent shooting of Sami Jabr Kahil in Gaza City by an Israeli sniper on Monday.

Days ago, the Latin Patriarchate of Jerusalem Communication Office announced the murder of two Palestinian Christian women by an Israeli sniper, who shot the women "in cold blood" inside the premise of the Holy Family Parish, in Gaza, "where there are no belligerents."
