Two United Hatzalah volunteer EMTs, Aharon Ben Arush and David Fima, gave their account of what they experienced regarding the soldier and the toddler.

“At the beginning of the incident, we provided initial treatment to a woman who suffered light limb injuries. While we were treating her, a four-year-old girl was brought to us in critical condition, and after unsuccessful resuscitation attempts, her death was pronounced at the scene,” they said.

Israel Police released a statement with a video from the scene, stating that a Border Police officer mistakenly shot at the vehicle carrying the young toddler.
