Palestinian Red Crescent: Fate of four workers held by Israel unknown

The Palestinian Red Crescent says two of its members of its medical teams in Gaza have been released from Israeli military custody but a further four remain unaccounted for.

Bassam Ahmad Abu Ta'ima and Mu'min Shaban Al-Taif spent 49 days in Israeli captivity after being detained at the Al-Amal hospital in Khan Younis in March.

The organisation says it does not know the fate of the four others believed to be held by Israel.
