"Appears to contradict" is a euphemism. The footage clearly shows the IDF initial account was a complete lie.

It didn't happen. And if it did, it wasn't that bad. And if it was, that's not a big deal. And if it is, that's not my fault. And if it was, I didn't mean it. And if I did, you deserved it.

> The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) insists at least six of the medics were linked to Hamas - but has so far provided no evidence. It admits they were unarmed when the soldiers opened fire.

They really are pivoting to "these unarmed medics we shot without identifying them deserved it".
