No. But I did hear a few days ago that according to the Palestinian branch of the International Red Cross, Israeli troops were deliberately blocking roads to prevent ambulances from reaching people who were wounded in the attack on Arafat's offices in Ramallah. And while we are on the topic of blocking roads: a few months ago, footage was shown of a funeral procession of Palestinians, on their way to bury some of their relatives who had been killed by Israeli fire. The walk to the cemetery would have taken only 15 minutes, but Israeli troops quickly blocked the road, forcing the funeral procession to take a detour. They ended up having to walk for two hours. Ever walked around for two hours, carrying a coffin on your shoulder?
