Ambulance crew shot at by Israeli forces: Red Crescent
The Palestine Red Crescent Society, which provides ambulance service in the West Bank, said Israeli forces opened fire on one of their crews in Jenin Saturday, despite prior coordination of its entry into the camp.
In addition to the incident Saturday, shots were fired at an ambulance Thursday, injuring a volunteer doctor and the crew of the ambulance, the Jenin spokesman for the PRCS told ABC News.
Israeli forces continue to block entry to hospital and are conducting arbitrary searches of ambulance crews, the spokesman said.
The Israeli military said they are blocking hospitals to stop militants from taking cover there.
PRCS says they treated two more injuries Saturday.
The Palestinian Ministry of Health said the death of an elderly man today brings the death toll since the beginning of the Israeli raid on the West Bank to 20 people.
