A British MP is belatedly claiming that her convoy in Rafah was fired on by Israeli soldiers: Israeli Troops Shot at Convoy in Gaza - UK Lawmaker.

Baroness Lindsay Northover of the Liberal Democrat party said she and two other lawmakers had visited Rafah Friday with a U.N. convoy to observe the battered camp.

Northover, spokeswoman on International Development in the House of Lords, the upper house of the British parliament, said they suddenly heard a burst of machine gunfire from the direction of an army observation tower in front of them.

How dare the brutal Israeli military be so uncaring and unfeeling as to believe that UN vehicles might be used to transport terrorists?

“A U.N. official who was supervising us told us to quickly return to the vehicles because we were being shot at,” she said. “He said they were probably firing warning shots. We had come down there in clearly marked U.N. vehicles with U.N. flags on them.” …

The army spokesman said the delegation had not coordinated its visit with Israel’s security forces or foreign ministry and that the army had only Saturday received an official complaint on the incident.

“The army will continue to check the allegations even though until now the incident was unknown,” the spokesman said.

Gee, you don’t think the Baroness might be grinding an axe, do you? She drives up to an army observation tower unannounced and unscheduled, in vehicles that are sometimes used as support for attacks against Israelis, in the middle of a freakin’ war zone, then screams at the horror of having warning shots fired at her—but not until a day later?

Oh, brother.
