Gaza Massacre: 15 Paramedics Killed in Israeli Attack
2025-04-05
On March 23, Israeli forces massacred 15 Palestinian paramedics in Rafah, southern Gaza, including eight Red Crescent and five Civil Defense workers. The sole survivor, Munther Abed, recounted being directly shot at, their vehicles destroyed, and subsequently tortured. The UN described the attack as part of a “concerted policy to destroy Gaza’s healthcare system,” and the Red Cross/Red Crescent called it the deadliest single attack on their workers since 2017. This incident highlights the ongoing attacks on medical personnel in the Gaza war and the gross violation of international humanitarian law.
