A black bag with a patch reading 'Nationally Registered Emergency Medical Technician' is placed next to a wooden surface. Beside it, a copy of The New York Times newspaper is laid on top of another bag, possibly blue. The newspaper article headline addresses the resumption of attacks in Gaza after a truce, and the image on the front shows a group of people attending to an injured individual.
