35. It was this -
Edited on Sat Oct-22-05 05:13 AM by Englander
From October last year, the idf claimed that film of a UNRWA
ambulance showed a rocket being placed in the back, when the shown
object was actually a stretcher. The Unrwa chief, Peter Hansen,
used the phrase, & that's what it refers to.

In October 2004, Israel released a video tape it alleged showed militants transporting a rocket in an Unrwa ambulance. This proved to be false, and the Israeli army was forced to withdraw the allegation.

Mr Hansen accused the Israeli government of disseminating "deliberately inciteful, false and malicious propaganda".
