Narrative:
ATC pointed out traffic to us and we replied traffic in sight, so we started a left turn to avoid traffic. ATC requested we turn right and climb. So we turned back right and at that time so did the other aircraft, and we were headed straight for oncoming traffic. We immediately turned evasively to the left to avoid hitting the aircraft.
