The International Committee of the Red Cross has said its worker Mahmoud Barakeh was killed in the Gaza Strip as he was on his way home, Al Jazeera reports.
Barakeh — who leaves behind his wife, three sons and two daughters — worked supporting logistics at the Red Cross Field Hospital in Rafah, the group said in a statement.
“His killing is a profound personal loss and a painful moment for our teams,” it said. “This heartbreaking loss is yet another stark reminder of the immense challenges our colleagues and the people of Gaza face each day.”
