Israel’s military has acknowledged “professional failures” and a breach of orders in the killing of 15 rescue workers in Gaza on March 23, resulting in the dismissal of a deputy commander. The military’s investigation found that Israeli troops mistakenly fired on ambulances, claiming poor visibility and alleging that some victims were Hamas militants, a claim denied by the Red Crescent. Despite admitting mistakes, the report did not recommend criminal action or find violations of the IDF’s ethics code, while international calls for accountability continue.
