Statements | Spokesperson for the Secretary-General

The Israeli government has acknowledged that the video of the UNRWA ambulance does in fact show the driver handling a stretcher and not a rocket.

The Secretary-General is committed to preventing the illegal use of UN vehicles or facilities by armed militants. Should any further issues arise, the Secretary-General expects the Government of Israel to share with the United Nations, through normal diplomatic channels, any information it might have so that the matter may be properly investigated.
