A Palestinian paramedic who has been missing since an Israeli attack that killed 15 other emergency workers in southern Gaza three weeks ago is being detained by Israeli authorities, the International Committee of the Red Cross has said.
The ICRC confirmed in a statement that it had "received information" that Palestine Red Crescent Society (PRCS) medic Assad al-Nassasra was being held "in an Israeli place of detention".
The PRCS said Mr Nassasra was "forcibly abducted" by Israeli troops following the attack and called for his immediate release.
The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) has not confirmed his detention. A spokesperson said it was aware of the claim about his whereabouts.
