He was among ten Palestinians released at an Israeli border crossing with Gaza on April 29, 2025.

Initially, the Israeli military claimed they fired on 'suspicious vehicles' but later retracted this statement after evidence showed the ambulances had their emergency lights activated.

A senior UN humanitarian official in Gaza emphasized that the absence of accountability threatens international law and increases global insecurity.

Asaad al-Nassasrah, a paramedic in Gaza, has been released after being detained for over five weeks following an Israeli attack that killed 15 aid workers.

An internal military inquiry concluded that the shooting resulted from 'an operational misunderstanding' and led to the dismissal of the deputy commander of the reconnaissance battalion involved.

The other survivor, paramedic Munther Abed, reported being captured, blindfolded, and interrogated by the IDF for 15 hours after the attack.

The PRCS condemned the inquiry's findings, asserting they are part of a broader strategy to distort the truth and evade accountability for targeting medical missions under the Geneva Conventions.

A video recovered from the phone of a deceased aid worker captured the moments leading up to the attack, contradicting Israel's official account.

The PRCS criticized the Israeli military's investigation, labeling it as 'full of lies' and calling for an independent international investigation.

The deceased included eight paramedics from the Palestinian Red Crescent Society (PRCS), six members of Gaza's civil defense, and one UN staffer.

Al-Nassasrah was one of only two first responders who survived the attack on March 23, 2025, which left 15 Palestinian emergency workers dead.

The incident occurred when Israeli forces fired upon a convoy of ambulances, a fire truck, and a UN vehicle in Tel al-Sultan, southern Gaza.
