The Israeli Defence Forces (IDF) head, Maj.-Gen. Herzi Halevi addressed his troops and the internal incident that took place on Friday related to the killing of three Israeli hostages in Gaza, amid the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict.

The murdered hostages were bare-chested and carrying a white flag as they sought help from the IDF, before they were mistakenly shot dead by the troops.

“If it's two Gazans with a white flag coming out to surrender, would we shoot at them? Absolutely not … That's not the IDF,” Halevi said in a video released Sunday, where he suggested troops not make the same mistake again.

“We arrest them, we don't shoot them. We get a lot of intelligence from the captives we have,” Halevi added.

Meanwhile in Tel Aviv, Israeli army spokesperson, Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari said that the IDF has located the building the three hostages in question were staying in before being killed.

Signs reading "S.O.S." and "Help, three hostages" in Hebrew were found on the walls of the Gaza where the men were staying. The IDF shared images of the building and signs on Sunday.
