During the clashes following the funeral in al-Khalil (Hebron) for 14
Palestinians killed over the last three months by Israeli forces and
settlers, the Israeli military in Bab al-Zawwiya (an H1, supposedly
Palestinian-controlled neighborhood) forced a Palestinian Red Crescent
Society ambulance to move away from the street where it was attempting
to drive in order to be prepared to treat wounded protesters. After
heavily armed Israeli forces approached the ambulance, they threw a stun
grenade to make it leave the street medics had been planning to drive
down. Over the last few months Israeli forces have often harassed,
threatened, and even injured Palestinian medics attempting to treat
Palestinians wounded by Israeli settlers or military forces.
