Hamas attack on aid workers leaves eight dead as org fears some were 'taken hostage'

An unprovoked Hamas attack on Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) workers left at least eight people dead and many others injured, as the U.S.-backed organization fears some team members may have been taken hostage.
