The International Committee of the Red Cross transferred 13 released Palestinian detainees from the Kerem Shalom crossing to Nasser Hospital in Gaza, Middle East Eye reported. The ICRC facilitated the movement of the freed prisoners following their release, providing logistical support across the border crossing that connects Israeli territory to the Gaza Strip.
The transfer underscores the Red Cross's ongoing coordination role in managing the movement of detainees between Israel and Gaza. Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis has emerged as a key medical facility for Palestinians throughout the recent conflict, receiving casualties and patients requiring acute care. The facility has faced significant strain as fighting has continued across the territory.
