Israeli Drones Fired At Refugee Convoy, Killing Seven

HeadlineAug 14, 2006

Israeli drones also fired missiles at a convoy of hundreds of cars fleeing Southern Lebanon. At least seven people were killed, including a Lebanese Red Cross worker. 36 others were wounded. The head of the Lebanese Red Cross accused Israel of breaking the Geneva Conventions by attacking civilians and Red Cross vehicles. The United Nations said Israel bombed the convoy even though it had granted it permission to leave southern Lebanon. Another Red Cross ambulance was bombed earlier in the day near Tyre.
