Israel deliberately targeted Red Cross ambulances

 

 

 

 

" The ambulance headlamps were on, the blue light overhead was

flashing, and another light

illuminated the Red Cross flag when the first Israeli missile hit,

shearing off the right leg of the

man on the stretcher inside. As he lay screaming beneath fire and

smoke, patients and ambulance

workers scrambled for safety, crawling over glass in the dark. Then

another missile hit the second

ambulance.

 

" Even in a war which has turned the roads of south Lebanon into

killing zones, Israel's rocket

strike on two clearly marked Red Cross ambulances on Sunday night set

a deadly new milestone. "
