“People have taken my face and made it a symbol of hate,” the IDF veteran falsely accused of being the sniper who fatally shot Gazan nurse Razan al-Najjar (https://www.jpost.com/Arab-Israeli-Conflict/IDF-probing-shooting-death-of-Palestinian-nurse-558982) told The Jerusalem Post on Monday.
A Boston native, 24 year-old Rebecca Rum (not her full name for security purposes) was falsely accused over the weekend of being the sniper who fatally shot 21-year-old Razan Ashraf al-Najjar, a Gazan nurse who was shot in the stomach while providing first aid to wounded demonstrators near the fence outside Khan Younis on Friday evening.
The IDF said it was investigating her death.
Rebecca told the Post that she was “really sorry” about al-Najjar’s death but that people should "check their facts" before spreading lies.
