Phone footage from one of 15 Palestinians medics killed by Israeli forces last month appears to contradict Israeli claims that the medics’ vehicles did not have emergency signals on when troops opened fire on them in southern Gaza.

The footage shows the Red Crescent and Civil Defence teams driving slowly with their emergency vehicles’ lights flashing, with the logos visible, as they pulled up to help an ambulance that had come under fire earlier.
