Six Gaza rescuers missing after Israeli forces storm Rafah

Gaza’s Civil Defence Agency says it has lost contact with six of its members who entered Rafah on a rescue mission.

They were responding to distress calls after Israeli forces moved into the al-Hashaashin area in western Rafah, reportedly leaving casualties behind.

Palestine Red Crescent teams also joined the operation on Sunday, but since then, there has been no word from the rescuers. The agency says it fears the worst.
