A joint investigation by Forensic Architecture and Earshot, released on February 24, 2026, details the killing of 15 aid workers in Tal as-Sultan, Gaza on March 23, 2025. The report states that Israeli soldiers fired over 900 bullets at clearly marked emergency vehicles belonging to the Palestine Red Crescent Society, Palestinian Civil Defence, and UNRWA. Audio analysis suggests a coordinated ambush with survivors allegedly killed at close range. The investigation used audio ballistics and footage from a slain paramedic's phone to reconstruct the event. While the Israeli military initially cited a "professional error," the report indicates a calculated effort to eliminate the aid workers.
