Israel Accused of Targeting Palestinian Medics in Gaza
The United Nations has accused Israel of deliberately targeting and killing 15 Palestinian paramedics and rescue workers in Gaza. The UN's human rights office reported that these attacks occurred over the past five months, with the medics being killed 'one by one' while attempting to provide aid in the conflict zone.
According to the Associated Press, the Israeli military has been accused of attacking ambulances and medical personnel, with the latest incident involving the recovery of the bodies of eight Red Crescent medics in Gaza, with one still missing. The Palestinian Red Crescent Society has condemned these actions, stating that the targeting of medical workers is a violation of international humanitarian law.
Reuters reported that the Israeli military has denied these allegations, claiming that their operations are aimed at Hamas militants and not civilians or medical personnel. However, the UN's findings suggest a pattern of attacks on medical workers, raising concerns about the safety of those providing essential services in the midst of the ongoing conflict.
