Was the 11:11 on 11-11 thing planned or coincidental?

@SW-User It wasn't even at 11:11. It was at 11:00 a.m., six hours after the negotiations were sucessful. A lot of people still died in those six hours. As the negotiations had started a few days earlier, the date is purely coincidental.

@Uncle Are you sure? I believe the time was planned specifically for that date.
