Red Cross chief in Rafah recounts shelling horror
A senior Red Cross official in Gaza on Saturday told reporters of the horrific scenes after an Israeli strike in the Gaza Strip.
It was around 3:30 pm when three explosions rocked the walls of the Red Cross compound in Gaza on Friday, William Schomburg, the local chief for the ICRC told reporters in Geneva via video link.
Then came the "flood of wounded people" seeking help, said the international charity's chief in Rafah.
"There were piles of dead bodies, blood everywhere," he added.
