> On March 30, the bodies of over a dozen Palestinian first responders were found in a mass grave in the southern city of Rafah. In a war already defined as one of the deadliest attacks on journalists and aid workers in history, the massacre sent shockwaves across Gaza. Rescue crews discovered the bodies of 13 Palestinian paramedics—eight from the Red Crescent and five from the Palestinian Civil Defense, tasked with protecting and assisting civilians—along with one United Nations staffer. The body of one Civil Defense worker had been discovered three days earlier, bringing the total number of emergency and aid workers killed to 15. One of the Red Crescent’s paramedics, Asaad Al-Nasasra, is still missing.
