On October 7, 2023, during a large-scale Hamas-led attack, Israeli forces reportedly activated the Hannibal Directive in several instances. According to a UN Commission report, in one case, a tank crew confirmed applying the directive by firing at a vehicle suspected of carrying kidnapped Israeli soldiers, resulting in the deaths of up to 14 Israeli civilians
Additionally, investigations have revealed that Israeli forces destroyed numerous vehicles, some of which contained civilians. For instance, a Haaretz investigation reported that Israeli forces fired on vehicles attempting to flee the Re'im music festival, leading to civilian casualties
The Car Wall: Evidence of Civilian Casualties
In the aftermath of the attack, approximately 1,600 damaged vehicles were collected and transported to a lot near Netivot. These vehicles were found to have been destroyed by various means, including gunfire, anti-tank rounds, and tank tracks. Some vehicles were riddled with bullet holes, while others were burnt beyond recognition. This evidence suggests that Israeli forces may have fired on civilians attempting to flee, resulting in their deaths
Legal and Ethical Implications
The application of the Hannibal Directive in this context raises serious legal and ethical questions. International humanitarian law prohibits the targeting of civilians and mandates the protection of non-combatants during armed conflicts. The reported actions of Israeli forces on October 7 appear to contravene these principles, potentially constituting violations of international law.
