Red Cross 'outraged' by killing of eight medics in Gaza
"I am heartbroken. These dedicated ambulance workers were responding to wounded people. They were humanitarians. They wore emblems that should have protected them; their ambulances were clearly marked. They should have returned to their families; they did not," IFRC secretary general Jagan Chapagain said in a statement.
