The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) have admitted to mistakenly targeting and killing 15 emergency rescue workers in Gaza last month, claiming they were misidentified as Hamas operatives.
The incident occurred near Rafah when soldiers opened fire on a convoy that included ambulances, a UN vehicle, and a fire truck.
A New York Times video later contradicted IDF claims, showing medics in reflective gear with headlights on.
The IDF now acknowledges the mistake, citing miscommunication and drone surveillance error.
The investigation is ongoing, with international scrutiny increasing over the tragic ambush.
