Domaine de Grand Pré’s Recipe for Award-Winning Service and Hospitality | SaltWireGAZA - The United Nations Secretary General and aid agencies working in Gaza have condemned Israel's air strike on an ambulance on Friday, which the Israeli military said, without showing evidence, was carrying Hamas militants.

Israel's military said late on Friday it would present more evidence that an ambulance it struck was being used by Hamas to transport fighters and that the group used ambulances to move militants and weapons as"a method of operation". Hamas has denied both accusations. The Palestinian Red Crescent Society said in a statement that a group of five ambulances was seeking to transport people wounded by Israeli bombardment from al-Shifa Hospital in Gaza City to the Rafah border crossing with Egypt.

The PRCS said Friday's ambulance convoy was forced to turn back some 4 km from the hospital because the road was blocked with rubble from shelling. Videos verified by Reuters of the aftermath showed numerous people lying prone in pools of blood near ambulances.
