Three Israeli hostages killed mistakenly in Gaza by Israeli forces were shirtless and one of them was holding up a white flag, according to an initial inquiry into the incident, a military official has said. The incident took place in an area of intense combat where Hamas fighters operate in civilian attire and use deception tactics, the Israeli official said on Saturday.

Israel's Prime Minister has once again vowed that the military campaign in Gaza will not stop until Hamas is defeated.

Benjamin Netanyahu was speaking after a war cabinet meeting was held following the Israeli military's admission that its soldiers broke rules of engagement when they shot dead three captives in Gaza.
