Palestinian Red Crescent details medic's account of 15 colleagues' slaughter
Briefly

The Palestinian Red Crescent Society shared a disturbing testimony from paramedic Asaad al-Nasasra, detailing the assault on emergency responders in Gaza, where Israeli troops allegedly shot medics who were trying to assist the wounded. Nasasra, who survived the March 15 attack which killed 15 of his colleagues, described being detained and tortured for 37 days afterward. The bodies of the slain medics were later discovered in a mass grave, some with their hands tied, amid disputes from IDF. This account underscores the dangers faced by healthcare workers in conflict zones.
Asaad al-Nasasra, one of the few survivors, recounted the deliberate shooting of first responders by Israeli troops, highlighting a severe breach of humanitarian norms.
Despite the risks, Palestinian paramedics continue their life-saving work amidst conflict, illustrating their commitment to their mission even in the face of violence.
