Six months after the shootings. The headline is about a process continuing; the line beneath it is the news, and it is the strongest sentence about that week anywhere in this archive: new evidence counters Israel’s claim that shootings were justified.
The word for what happened is still shootings, with nobody shooting, but the justification has become something a state claimed and evidence contradicts.
