The Palestine Red Crescent Society (PRCS) has called for an independent international inquiry into the “deliberate killing” of 15 medical and humanitarian workers in an attack by Israeli forces in Gaza.

In a statement on Monday, the group said the March 23 attack in Gaza’s southern city of Rafah “constitutes a full-fledged war crime, and it reflects a dangerous pattern of repeated violation of international humanitarian law”.

As someone who proudly wore the Red Cross for many years as a volunteer I felt proud to be part of a global movement of Red Cross, Red Cresent & Red Crystal National Societies. Knowing that international law and the Geneva Conventions mean little to nothing to 'civilized' nations saddens me immensely.
