She said: “We contacted the ministry of health and they coordinated our safe access with the Israeli authorities. We were given the green light to move the ambulance.”
But she said the ambulance came under fire soon after it arrived at the location. “First [the paramedics] said the Israeli forces are putting laser lights on them … And then we heard a gunfire sound before we lost the connection. It was like a gunfire or explosion, we were not sure of what happened.”
They attacked the vehicle the girl was in, then gave the red crescent the green light to go in, and then opened fire once the ambulance arrived.
Yes someone gave the green light, someone shot at them. Nowhere it’s said those were the same people, nor that the people giving green light knew that the other people were going to shoot.
The most likely thing is that they forgot to inform one group of soldiers, or that they misunderstood, or some other fatal miscommunication. Miscommunication is common in war. Deliberately baiting an ambulance is both extremely evil and stupid.
Attacking a civilian vehicle, then green lighting an ambulance, and then attacking said ambulance is baiting.
Given the amount of surveillance by Israeli forces, there is absolutely no reason to doubt that they were listening to the conversations between everyone involved.
