I agree the bit about burying vehicles sounds well suss. I understand burying bodies.

Informing the UN
The IDF also rejected the assertion that troops had buried the bodies in an unmarked mass grave without informing anyone.
Palestinian Red Crescent chief Dr. Younis Al-Khatib had said on Friday that the aid workers were “targeted from a very close range” and that Israel had “kept us for eight days in the dark” as to the whereabouts of the bodies.
According to the military’s initial probe, a deputy battalion commander in Golani and his troops collected the bodies in one spot, covered them with sand, and marked the burial spot.
The army said that burying bodies in this way was an approved and regular practice during fighting in Gaza, to prevent wild dogs and other animals from eating the corpses. (
while I accept this as valid reasoning, it still leaves the question to why the vehicles were buried and that does look well dodgy)
The United Nations was promptly notified of the burial spot, the IDF said (I'd like to see verification of this as proof), and was told to come and collect the bodies. The following day, however, the UN was unable to find the location, and the forces were unavailable to assist as they were busy with another task.
The UN was then called to return several days later to collect the bodies, and the bodies were eventually recovered in coordination with the IDF, the initial military probe found.
