On March 23, Israeli forces shot and killed 15 Palestinian paramedics and civil defense workers in Rafah, subsequently burying them in a mass grave. The Israeli military justified the attack by alleging that the vehicles were advancing suspiciously without emergency lights; however, an exhumation by the UN and Palestinian Red Crescent revealed a recording by paramedic Rifat Radwan that contradicted this claim. The incident has drawn attention and criticism, prompting discussions with the Guardian’s Jerusalem correspondent, Bethan McKernan, and emergency doctor Amy Neilson.
