Arab terrorists using a United Nations ambulance as a getaway car
Video footage filmed in the midst of a battle between the Israel Defense Forces and Palestinian gunmen in Rafah, Gaza has been obtained by Access|Middle East. The clip shows one UN ambulance providing cover for gunmen and another UN ambulance being used by Palestinians to transport armed militants.
* This footage was shot by Reuters on May 11 -- the day 6 IDF soldiers were killed when their armored personnel carrier was blown up -- but only released two weeks later.
At the time Israel has complained to the UN that Palestinian militants used U.N. ambulances to spirit away the remains of Israeli soldiers killed during a Gaza Strip raid. Peter Hansen, commissioner-general of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees, UNRWA, said in a statement he had demanded an apology from Israel's defense minister for what he called "damaging and baseless allegations." There was no immediate comment from the Israeli defense ministry on Israel's national Jewish holiday of Shavuot.
