Israel's military initially claimed that 15 rescue and aid workers were killed in the southern Gaza Strip after advancing suspiciously towards troops without headlights or emergency signals. However, video footage obtained by Palestinian medical officials refutes these claims, showing clearly marked rescue vehicles with headlights on and red emergency lights flashing. The crew was missing for over a week before their bodies were discovered under a mound of sand. Israel is expanding its military offensive in Gaza after breaking a ceasefire with Hamas, resulting in over 1,300 Palestinian deaths.
