Parts that a US manufacturer recovered from an Israeli strike on Thursday that resulted in the deaths of forty Palestinians.
The remains of the weapons that killed at least 40 Palestinians were found in the debris of the United Nations-run al-Sardi school in the heart of Gaza’s Nuseirat refugee camp, among children hurt in an Israeli attack on a school.
The displaced individuals taking refuge at the school were not warned in advance of the Israeli strike that occurred in the wee hours of Thursday. Along with nine ladies and at least seventy-four additional persons wounded, there were fourteen children slain. Based on a study of the remnants left behind by Al Jazeera, the weapons used in the attack were manufactured in the United States.
Made by Honeywell, an American firm that specialises in the design and supply of sensors and guidance technologies that are employed in a range of military weapons, the inertial measurement unit from the missile helped with accurate targeting. One of the shards recovered in Nuseirat had the manufacturer and category number HG1930BA06, which led Al Jazeera’s Sanad verification team to conclude that it belonged to Honeywell. HG1930 designates the particular sensor that the business produces.
The identical section was discovered in 2014 following an Israeli airstrike of a Palestinian house in Shujayea, Gaza. The identical manufacturer part number is etched on the two components from the 2014 blast and the most recent one.
In addition, we see additional figures such as the MFR, HG 1930, and BA 06. “This is the manufacturer part number that gives more precise information about the missile component,” independent military and political expert Elijah Magnier told Al Jazeera. “Looking at the manufacturer identification, you can see that Honeywell is connected to the aerospace and defence industry in the United States that uses this format.”
