Palestinian Ambulances Used for Terror
(Lancet) - Sami Viskin Palestinian ambulances were repeatedly used to transport combatants and weapons, prompting the IDF to send an official protest to the International Red Cross on May 2, 2002. There is a fundamental difference between the civilian losses suffered by Israel and the Palestinians. Genuine, continuous efforts are being made by the IDF to keep Palestinian civilian losses to a minimum, at times at the cost of Israeli soldiers' lives. Deaths among unarmed Palestinian civilians, caught in the crossfire between fighting forces, were unintentional. By contrast, civilian losses in Israel are deliberate.
