These are medical units that fall under the protections of the red cross as outlined in the Geneva Conventions.

"Under the Geneva Conventions, the three distinctive emblems of the red cross, red crescent and red crystal are intended to identify and protect medical and relief workers, military and civilian medical facilities, mobile units and hospital ships during armed conflict."

Ah, but going back up to the top, the Red Cross seems to be unhappy with in-game depictions of this reality.

Edit: Perhaps I misunderstood. I thought the Red Cross was complaining about military ambulances, hospital ships, and so on, depicted in games. In addition to less realistic uses.

Because it's used generally as "health" and not "protected health worker" in video games.

I suspect the red cross would not take issue with a game using the red cross to depict untargatable aid workers.

But they're not "untargetable". Laws of physics say so.
