According to the testimonies, an aid convoy of four trucks stopped on the Philadelphi route along Gaza's border with Egypt due to a malfunction in one of them. According to the transportation company that employed Salim, the convoy was pre-coordinated with the UN World Food Program, the WCK organization and the Israeli military. They say the drivers were removed from the trucks, beaten and forced to strip, and then Salim was shot dead.
