Rights groups reject Israel's probe into Gaza medics' killings
Medical Aid for Palestinians (MAP) and Al Mezan have dismissed Israel's military investigation into the deaths of 15 Palestinian rescue workers in Gaza last March.
In a joint statement, the groups said: "The Israeli military's self-exonerating report appears designed to whitewash atrocities and shield perpetrators, not to deliver justice."
They condemned the findings as a "gross distortion of reality", accusing Israel of covering up what may constitute a war crime.
The sole survivor, Palestine Red Crescent Society medic Assad al-Nasasrah, remains detained by Israel. Over 300 healthcare workers from Gaza have been held since October 2023.
