Not Planned
Since the original plan of the convoy was to detour the town, the attack most likely was not planned. The convoy had turned into the town and then was ambushed. Thus, the ambush could not have been planned beforehand since the Iraqis didn’t know this convoy would mistakenly drive into the town.

Proof of Torture
Along with some other members from her convoy, Jessica became a prisoner of war. She was held in the Saddam Hospital there in Nasiriya due to her injuries. This hospital had been converted into a base during the war. Unfortunately, Lori was unable to overcome her injuries and passed away in the hospital. Apparently, the Iraqis filmed their prisoners and broadcasted this footage worldwide. This evidence confirmed that POWs were tortured.
