The International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC) has condemned the killing of eight Palestinian Red Crescent medics in Rafah, Gaza. The ambulance team came under heavy fire on March 23, and their bodies were retrieved a week later. One medic remains missing. Hamas blamed the Israel Defense Forces (IDF), though the IDF has not publicly responded. The Israeli military previously admitted to firing on ambulances, citing security concerns. IFRC Secretary-General Jagan Chapagain called the attack a violation of international humanitarian law, emphasizing that medics and civilians must be protected in conflict zones. (PC: Getty Images)
