Israeli soldiers tied explosives around the neck of an 80-year-old Palestinian man and used him as a human shield, forcing him search for explosives before killing him and his wife, an investigation has revealed.

Israeli news site HaMakom revealed the a senior officer in the Nahal Brigade threatened to blow up the man's head unless he searched the Al-Zaytoun neighbourhood of Gaza City for explosives in May.

After the search was over, the soldiers ordered the couple to evacuate on foot to Khan Younis in the south, but another group of soldiers shot them dead. The soldiers say that they failed to let the second battalion know about the couple, and they were consequently shot
