Red Cross ambulances destroyed in Israeli air strike on rescue mission

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.

4. Everyone knows Hezbollah hides in ambulances!
Israel doesn't intentionally target ambulances!

That will be the Israeli lie to justify this. And the Israeli apologists will be repeating it ad nauseum. They are as predictable as the tides.

6. Where are the Israel supporters?
Kind of hard to say that this was unintentional, don't you think? What is the purpose of such an act? Please do inform us.
