The killing of a Palestine Red Crescent Society mental health volunteer brings to 29 the total number of PRCS staff killed by Israeli forces since October 7 and the start of Israel’s offensive on Gaza.
In a post on X, PRCS said it mourned the killing of Najm Tabassi and his wife in an Israeli attack on their home in southern Gaza’s Rafah city.
The PRCS added that 17 of the 29 staff members killed had died in “targeted” attacks by the Israeli military “while performing their humanitarian duties”.
