The Palestine Red Crescent rejects the findings of an IDF investigation that blamed operational failures for the killing of 15 Gaza emergency service workers, denouncing the report as “full of lies.”
“The report is full of lies. It is invalid and unacceptable, as it justifies the killing and shifts responsibility to a personal error in the field command, when the truth is quite different,” Nebal Farsakh, spokesperson for the Red Crescent, tells AFP.
