Red Cross Outraged: Eight Medics Killed in Gaza
The International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement strongly condemned the killing of eight Palestinian medics and six Civil Defence personnel by Israeli forces in Gaza. Fifteen bodies, including a UN staff member, were recovered from a mass grave after being denied access to the area for seven days. Israel claims the vehicles were advancing suspiciously without lights, while the Red Cross asserts that the medics were clearly marked and targeted in violation of international humanitarian law. A full investigation is demanded to determine the precise circumstances surrounding the incident.
