The Palestine Red Crescent Society said a missile from an Israeli drone destroyed one of its ambulances in central Gaza on Wednesday, killing four crew members as well as the two patients it was transporting.

“Our colleagues were intentionally targeted while inside an ambulance clearly marked with the Red Crescent emblem,” the aid group said.

The UN undersecretary-general for humanitarian affairs and emergency relief co-ordinator Martin Griffiths posted on X condemning the attack which killed four employees with the ambulance crew.

“The rules of war are clear: Parties must protect civilians, including humanitarian workers. These rules must be upheld,” Mr Griffiths said.
