Palestinian Red Crescent condemns Israeli strike on ambulance convoy
People gather around an ambulance damaged in a reported Israeli strike in front of Al-Shifa hospital in Gaza City on November 3, 2023, as battles between Israel and the Palestinian Hamas movement continue.
In a series of statements, Hamas denied that its fighters had been inside the ambulances.
Some 16 hospitals across Gaza are no longer functioning because of damage from strikes and the lack of fuel.
The Palestinian Red Crescent Society has condemned the targeting of a convoy of ambulances in Gaza by Israeli forces on Friday, which it says killed 15 people and wounded more than 60 others.
The PRCS said in a statement early Saturday that one of its ambulances was struck "by a missile fired by the Israeli forces", about two metres from the entrance to the Al-Shifa hospital in Gaza City.
