Israel says, ‘breach of orders’ led to Gaza medics’ deaths, dismisses deputy commander

An Israeli military investigation revealed that the killing of 15 emergency responders in Gaza on March 23 was due to an “operational misunderstanding” and breaches of protocol. Troops mistakenly perceived a threat, leading to the tragic incident in Rafah's Tal al-Sultan area. Disciplinary actions include the dismissal of a battalion commander and reprimand for a brigade commander.
