Israel's military acknowledged serious professional failures surrounding the shooting of 15 rescue workers in Gaza, which drew international condemnation. While admitting that a deputy commander would be dismissed for his role, the military did not recommend criminal charges against those involved. The incident occurred on March 23, resulting in the deaths of eight Red Crescent paramedics, six civil defense workers, and a UN staffer. Israel initially claimed the medics' vehicles lacked emergency signals, but later evidence contradicted this. The investigation, while providing details, still maintained that some of the deceased were Hamas militants, a claim rejected by the Red Crescent.
