Mobile telephony sequences, filmed by one of the paramedical paramedics, have shown that vehicles had lights on when they answered a call to help the wounded.
Israeli defense forces (FDI) insist that at least six of the doctors were linked to Hamas – but have so far had no evidence. He admits that they were not armed when the soldiers opened fire.
