Israeli forces had used a Palestinian man as a human shield in the Jenin area in the occupied West Bank, which was bombed by Netanyahu's military on Saturday.
The oppressors have also kidnapped a person and injured three others during the raids.
The viral video shows an Israeli military jeep driving past ambulances with an injured Palestinian man strapped to the hood, a disturbing tactic that amounts to a war crime.

Talking to an international media Al Jazeera, Mujahed Abadi, who was strapped to the front of an Israeli military vehicle, explained the brutal ordeal he faced.
"The Israeli soldiers were laughing and mocking me while beating me to death. Two Israeli soldiers grabbed my hands and two others my feet and then started swinging me left and right. I fell to the ground twice and third attempt they shocked me over the hood. It was extremely hot that my back was burnt," he said.
"I had hoped to be dead before the Israeli soldiers arrived. I had expected them to aid my wounds and not to beat them while I already had two critical injuries,' Abadi added.
A series of deadly Israeli military attacks across Gaza killed at least 45 Palestinians on Friday, with the highest death toll in the al-Mawasi area, where an attack on a tented camp killed 25 people and wounded 50.
Israeli strikes in Khan Younis killed three people, including a father and son, while an air strike on the Shati refugee camp in Gaza City killed 10 people and wounded 17 others.
A separate strike on a municipal building in Gaza City killed five people, adding to the growing list of Israeli atrocities.
The death toll in Gaza from Israel's relentless attacks since October 7 has climbed to 37,551, with another 85,911 Palestinians wounded.
