Fifteen Palestinian paramedics and rescue workers, including at least one UN employee, were killed by Israeli forces 'one by one' and buried in a mass grave eight days ago in southern Gaza, the UN has said. The shootings happened on 23 March, one day into the renewed Israeli offensive in the area close to the Egyptian border. Another Red Crescent worker on the mission is reported missing
Footage of two ambulance workers struggling not to laugh while recording a video for International Paramedics Day has proved to be an unlikely hit on social media.
The out-takes of Dave Tamarro and Joe Cartwright's attempts to explain what it was like to do their jobs was shared and liked hundreds of times on the East of England Ambulance Service Trust (EEAST) Facebook page.
They had been given the task to mark the first International Paramedics Day, which celebrates the work of ambulance crews worldwide.
Chief executive of EEAST Tom Abell said: "We received hundreds of lovely messages about Dave and Joe’s many attempts at their message. I know they have both been amazed by the response."
