Israel admits "professional failures" in Gaza attack that killed 15 medics

Jerusalem, Apr 20 (UNI) The Israeli military on Sunday admitted that a series of "professional failures" resulted in the killing of 15 emergency responders in southern Gaza last month, including personnel from the Palestinian Red Crescent Society, Civil Defence teams and a United Nations employee.
The findings were released following an internal investigation conducted by the General Staff Fact-Finding Mechanism. The probe concluded that troops involved in the incident did not engage in "indiscriminate fire," but acknowledged serious operational and procedural errors.
According to the investigation, the incident occurred before dawn on March 23 in the Tel al-Sultan neighborhood of Rafah. Israeli forces mistakenly identified emergency vehicles as belonging to Hamas due to "poor night visibility."
