• The UN and Palestinian Red Crescent accuse Israeli forces of executing the workers and burying their bodies in a mass grave alongside crushed emergency vehicles.
• Video evidence contradicts initial Israeli military claims that the convoy was moving suspiciously without lights, showing clearly marked ambulances with lights on.
• Israel has launched an internal investigation but denies war crime allegations, while maintaining claims—without evidence—that some victims were Hamas operatives.
• Calls for an independent international inquiry grow as Gaza faces a worsening humanitarian crisis under Israel's ongoing blockade of essential aid supplies.
