Rescue Turned Into Murder
Eyewitnesses said the tragedy began when strong waves pulled five relatives into the sea. Calls for help were ignored for nearly 15 minutes. When the maritime police boat finally approached, it sped toward the struggling swimmers. “The boat struck Ameen and Baha,” said Ibrahim Shweiki, the victims’ uncle. “They could have saved them, but they killed them instead.” Survivors testified that police pushed them back into the water. One young man tried to climb aboard but was beaten on his hands and thrown into the spinning propellers. Another was struck when he tried to help. Photos and video footage of the victims’ bodies show deep marks from propellers on their legs and hands. Ibrahim said police even dumped a victim’s body at the port among docked ships.عائلتا الشابين بهاء شويكي وأمين زعرور تتهم شرطة الاحتلال بارتكاب جريمة قتل متعمد بحق ابنيهما في بحر يافا عائلتا الشابين بهاء شويكي وأمين زعرور تتهم شرطة الاحتلال بارتكاب جريمة قتل متعمد بحق ابنيهما في بحر يافا Posted by قناة فلسطين الإخبارية on Thursday, August 21, 2025
