GAZA: Ruined buildings and vehicles… Bloodstained bed sheets and cloths… Beds and furniture burnt beyond recognition… Meanwhile relatives wail and cry as they search for the dead bodies of their loved ones. The scenes that shock the conscience can be seen in the vicinity of Al-Ahli Hospital in Gaza. Another pitiful sight here are the wailing toddlers who wander around unaware of the screams and sirens. Dusty and scarred back faces symbolize the suffering of the Palestinian people in Gaza. Gaza’s health ministry says the majority of those killed were women and children. Many Palestinians sought refuge at Al-Ahli Hospital following Israel’s warning to evacuate northern Gaza. Most of these ranged from amputees to severe injuries. Doctors in Gaza City say they are facing a dire crisis after the hospital attack. There is no medical equipment or medicine to save the injured. The doctors pointed out that it is a bad practice to operate on patients lying on the ground in hospitals and many are not even given anesthesia. Meanwhile, there is a high possibility of infections in the injured. On the other hand, the threat of epidemics and lack of access to clean water. Following the attacks by Hamas, Israeli sanctions have left the civilians of Gaza in dire straits. This was followed by an explosion in the hospital. Many of the survivors only remember the loud explosion and the collapse of the hospital building. A truly graveyard-like situation can be seen in the Al-Ahli area.
