The Palestine Red Crescent Society has said that one of its staff members has been killed and three others wounded in an Israeli attack on its Khan Younis headquarters in Gaza, AFP reports.

“One Palestine Red Crescent Society (PRCS) 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 post on X.

A video, which the PRCS said “captures the initial moments” of the attack, shows fires burning in a building, with the floors covered in rubble.
