Reports indicate that the Israeli Army deliberately targeted the ambulance as it arrived at the scene. According to PRCS, the ambulance was meters from the vehicle containing Hind.

"The occupation deliberately targeted the ambulance upon its arrival at the scene, where it was found just meters away from the vehicle containing the trapped child Hind," the PRCS said on X.

Despite prior coordination to ensure safe passage for the ambulance to reach the location and rescue Hind, the Israeli Army attacked the PRCS ambulance crew.
