00:00Panic and chaos in Han Yunis as Palestinians rush the dead and injured to the local hospital.
00:08They've been hit by an airstrike targeting the humanitarian area of al-Mawasi near the
00:13coast where tents of displaced Palestinians and a Red Cross base were located, leaving
00:18many survivors to mourn their relatives.
00:23This afternoon they fired a bomb near the Red Cross. We're located near the Red Cross.
00:28My husband ran to check. They're fired again. There were casualties and people gathered
00:32there. I tried to call my husband but he didn't answer.
00:38There was a strike. My two sons left after they heard the women and children screaming.
00:43They went to save the women and that's when the second missile hit and my sons were martyred.
00:50The ICRC confirmed on Twitter that the shelling had been fired dangerously close to humanitarian
00:55structures marked with the Red Cross emblem.
00:59The strike damaged the structure of the ICRC office, which is surrounded by hundreds of
01:04displaced civilians living in tents, including many of our Palestinian colleagues.
01:10The Israeli authorities say the incident is under review, adding that an initial inquiry
01:15shows no indication of the strike being carried out by the Israeli army.
