PRCS expresses ‘grave concern’ over safety of its detained members
The Palestinian Red Crescent (PRCS) says six members of its team are still detained by Israeli forces. Their fate remains “unknown”, the group said in a post on X.
“Their families and colleagues are deeply concerned for them, especially as they are aware that they are currently being subjected to torture and humiliation based on the testimonies of their released colleagues,” PRCS said.
Gaza civil defence says recovered bodies after Israeli attack on Gaza City
Gaza’s civil defence crews have said they recovered three bodies from under the rubble of a “family home” in the Sheikh Radwan neighbourhood of Gaza City after it was struck by Israeli warplanes. At least one other was wounded, they said, while nine others remain missing under the debris. The teams were working with their hands due to a lack of adequate equipment.
Video footage verified by Al Jazeera showed the direct aftermath, moments after the Israeli army attacked the home that was housing some 15 people. According to testimonies of the area’s residents, most of those who were in the house were children, women and elderly Palestinians.
The owner of the house, Mohammed al-Jazzar, says the structure was bombed without warning. He said his entire family, including his wife, children and grandchildren were in the house. “We have not yet been able to dig them out of the rubble,” al-Jazzar said. “My son was martyred just 15 days ago, and today, I lost my whole family,” he said.
