No. Just because our enemies disregard the Convention and most, if not all, the rules in the Law of Armed Conflict does not mean we can tooo. And we do not even need to worry about that because in this case the law is quite clear. We are interpreting it quite correctly and have every right to protect our rescue assets in whatever what we see fit. The important point of law here is that we do not use the cover of MEDEVAC to carry out any other military operation.
