(cross-posting of comments only permitted) Between 30 and 40 ambulance drivers in 15 ambulances surrounded the Israeli Embassy in Oslo Saturday afternoon. With howling sirens they showed their contempt for the attack on doctors and medical personnel in the Palestinian areas. The drivers expressed feelings of shock and disbelief over the fact that Israeli soldiers shoot at ambulances and their personnel in active duty. Stian Loholt ============================ The Norway Post 9. Mars 2002 Norwegian ambulance drivers protest against Israeli attacks Ambulance drivers in Oslo on Saturday demonstrated in front of the Israeli embassy against Israel's attacks against Palestinian medical personnel in the Palestinian areas. They tried to deliver a letter of protest to the ambassador, but the door remained closed. Around 30 drivers from the Oslo Ambulance Club took part in the demonstration, and in the letter they expressed shock and disbelief over the fact that Israeli soldiers shoot at ambulances and their personnel on active duty. ============================ The Norway Post 9. Mars 2002 Strong criticism of Israel's attack on health personnel Foreign Minister Jan Petersen has accused Israel of serious breach of International Law, in the wake of Israeli attacks on doctors and medical personnel in the Palestinian self governing regions. -I deeply regret the continous Israeli attacks on the Red Crescent's medical personnel in the Palestinian areas, Petersen says. Petersen reacts in particular against Thursday's Israeli attacks against several ambulances in Tulkarem on the West Bank, during which two doctors were killed and several health workers were wounded. Also on Friday morning a Palestinian doctor was killed. -The attacks Thursday evening against ambulance personnel from the Red Crescent and the UN is a serious breach of international humanitarian law, which puts both sides under obligation to not attack neutral aid orgainzations like the UN and Red Cross which work to assist the victims of the conflict, Petersen says. The Norwegian Foreign Minister thereby supports Jan Egeland, Secretary General of the Norwegian Red Cross, who has called Israel's attacks against medical personnel gross violations of the Geneva Conventions and related protocols. Egeland rejects Israeli claims that the ambulances on the Palestinian side are being used to carry weapons and explosives, and asks for evidence. <A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/";>www.ctrl.org</A> DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER ========== CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.
