Israeli forces have been accused of executing handcuffed Palestinian medics before burying them in a mass grave underneath their crushed ambulances in southern Gaza’s Rafah.

Fifteen humanitarian workers went missing last week after responding to a distress call from civilians being attacked by Israeli forces.

The workers include eight paramedics from the Palestine Red Crescent Society (PRCS), six members of the Palestinian Civil Defence search-and-rescue teams, and one UN staff member.

They were found over the weekend in a mass grave with at least around 20 multiple gunshots in each one of them, according to Mahmoud Basal, spokesperson for the Palestinian Civil Defence in Gaza.

At least one of them had their legs bound, another was decapitated and a third topless, he added.

    It’s not the United Russia invasion, Likud genocide, or Republican aggression.

    It’s Russian, Israeli, and American.

    That’s the stage, that’s the lens, that’s the demarcation of responsibility and blame between citizens of one country and another.

      Collective responsibility and punishment is mother of all war atrocities. Just like not all Palestinians are Hamas (war criminals, terrorists), I am sure that not all Isrealis are Likud/IDF. Isreal’s role in this genocide is clear. Isreal as a country made terrible war crimes. But countries are not making anything, pepople do.
