Israeli Military Orders Deeper Probe Into Gaza Humanitarian Worker Killings

The deaths of 15 rescue workers on March 23 in Rafah have drawn international condemnation, with calls for an independent war crimes investigation intensifying.

The Israeli military announced on April 7 that it has ordered a more thorough investigation into the March 23 killing of 15 humanitarian workers in Rafah, Gaza.
Video evidence contradicts Israeli claims, showing clearly marked ambulances with flashing lights, challenging the initial narrative of unmarked, suspicious vehicles.
Autopsy results revealed that all victims were shot in the upper body, suggesting a deliberate intent to kill, according to the Palestinian Red Crescent (PRCS).
Global leaders, including Emmanuel Macron and German officials, are urging an independent investigation and immediate restoration of humanitarian aid to Gaza.
The incident is part of a broader humanitarian crisis in Gaza, with ongoing hostilities, a blockade, and mounting civilian casualties reported.
