Footage showing the moment Hala Khreis was killed as she tried to leave Gaza City went viral earlier this month. It’s one of a growing number of videos that show unarmed civilians holding white flags being shot dead.

I recall seeing a zoomed in version of this clip around 2-4 weeks ago. At the time I wasn't sure whether it was made recently as it was very grainy looking. Sometimes old footage gets reposted.

But it looks like the footage was just digitally zoomed. This is the first time I'm seeing the zoomed out footage.
