The Haifa District Attorney's Office on Monday filed an indictment against Kamal Amar, 22, and Yusef Sarif, 54, of the Druse village of Hurfeish for an alleged June 22 attack on an IDF ambulance carrying wounded Syrians in an attempt to block the state from potentially helping Syrian rebels.
The two were charged with endangering lives on a through-way.
According to the indictment, the ambulance left with an IDF reserve doctor and four IDF soldiers transporting two wounded Syrians from the Filon military base near Safed to the Nahriya Hospital around 1:00 a.m.
Around 1:30 a.m., the ambulance reached Sultan Basha intersection in Hurfeish in the Northern Galilee where the incident occurred.
Northern District police said the villagers threw stones at the ambulance and that as the vehicle fled the scene it was chased by two carloads of locals, but that the crew of the ambulance managed to arrive safely at the police station in Ma’alot. The ambulance was then given a police escort to the Western Galilee Hospital in Nahariya.
