Red Crescent staff killed in Israeli attack on Gaza headquarters as aid crisis deepens

“One Palestine Red Crescent Society staff member was killed and three others injured after Israeli forces targeted the Society’s headquarters in Khan Younis, igniting a fire on the building’s first floor,” the aid organisation said in a social media post.

A video, which it said “captures the initial moments” of the attack, shows fires burning in a building, with the floors covered in rubble.
The news comes two days after US envoy Steve Witkoff visited a US-backed aid station in Gaza to inspect efforts to get food into the devastated Palestinian territory.
