Times Of Israel: IDF shares initial details from Gaza ambulance probe, says troops told UN of burial site
The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) admitted to inaccuracies in their initial report regarding an incident in Rafah, Gaza, where Israeli troops fired on ambulances, resulting in the deaths of 14 or 15 medics.

The IDF maintains that the soldiers perceived the vehicles as a threat due to prior engagements with Hamas operatives. The incident has drawn international attention, with the UN and the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies condemning the attack on healthcare workers.
