(FILES) This file photo taken on July 16, 2014 shows Palestinians mourn over the body of a boy from the Baker family, whom medics said was killed with other three children from the same family by a shell fired by an Israeli naval gunboat, at a hospital morgue in Gaza City. Israeli documents said today that The killing of four Palestinian children aged 10 and 11 by an Israeli air raid on a Gaza beach during the 2014 war could have been prevented. According to report, the investigation by the Israeli military after the event failed to investigate key discrepancies between statements by military officers about what exactly happened. Statements from Israeli military personnel involved in the incident were taken months after. More than 2,250 Palestinians, including nearly 1,500 civilians, were killed and a further 11,000 were wounded in the conflict, according to Palestinian and UN estimates during the seven-week Gaza war.
