Continuation from thread 3

The on-going dire situation at the hospital

It's sickening to read
The WHO have been endlessly highlighting these atrocities but it seems as everything right now is just so terrible not much is being picked up or given much focus on.

It's like a never ending nightmare that keeps getting worse

So much really awful stuff has been normalised but agree the account of the paramedics treatment still stands out as extreme and apparently uneccessarily brutal

There's a report on Al Jazeera from yesterday that the IDF were rounding up men and boys from the age of 15 including medical staff from the Kamal Adwan Hospital. There are 65 patients in intensive care, including 12 children and 6 newborn babies in incubators. I feel lost for words as to what will happen to them.

WTF does the IDF have against premature babies. This is the third time they appear to be committing war crimes against them. It's absolutely deranged.

@Toothyfruity just found a CNN report from today: According to Dr. Abu-Safia, he and just five other doctors were allowed to stay at Kamal Adwan Hospital to attend to patients in intensive care unit and premature babies.
But the care that the hospital’s remaining staff can offer patients too weak to be moved has been minimal, he said, “due to acute shortages of fuel, water, food, and medical supplies even before the siege.” Today the hospital has no water or power, he added, noting that doctors are “working with primitive flashlights to follow up on the patients left in the hospital.

Thanks for the information. Sounds positively medieval.

Difficult read on the situation in Gaza from Reuters today . The last comment is from a British Dr

" In Rafah, in Gaza's south where hundreds of thousands of people have sought shelter, the bodies of a family killed in an overnight air strike were being laid out in the rain in bloodied white shrouds, including several small children. One, the size of a newborn, was wrapped in a pink blanket."

"The scars of Israel's ground assault could also be seen in a cemetery in the Al-Faluja neighbourhood of Jabalia, northern Gaza, where passing tanks had churned up the ground, breaking and scattering gravestones and disinterring some corpses."

"Doctors including myself are stepping over the bodies of children to treat children who will die," Dr Chris Hook, a British physician deployed with medical charity MSF at Nasser hospital in Khan Younis, told Reuters.

What on earth is going on here? Shadia Abu Ghazala School?

Women, children & babies killed “execution-style” in Gaza Scho... (jordannews.jo)

@Xenia I stopped reading when I read this "When we recognise children following terrorists we stop attacking,' said the unit's deputy commander who can only be identified as Major R.
'They learnt from this. Now they're going down the street with a child in their hand."

As if they care about Palestinian children.

But the IDF has killed nearly 7000 children in 2 months. Why would Hamas think that carrying a child would protect them?

Wonder why the vast majority of links provided by those supporting Israel's genocidal campaign in Gaza are links to Daily Mail articles.

It is absolutely disgusting for anyone to try to take the blame away from Israel at this point. Almost all the world leaders agree. This is so wrong! We need to boycot and protest. When will this end :(

It's not an Israel-Hamas war, it is an Israel and Palestinian civilian war.

They executed civilians.

Oh look, the daily mail report that the idf say that these people walking around are hamas and there's hamas beating a guy up let's take it as truth

Bet that's the first time Xenia has posted a link to the daily mail

Hepatitis A is on the rise and this is very very concerning
Babies are being crammed onto single beds because there is no space in An nasser hospital

From sky

Several sick babies are having to be crammed into one bed at an overwhelmed hospital in southern Gaza as the Israeli bombing campaign continues.
Dr Ahmed al Farra, head of paediatrics at Nasser hospital in Khan Younis, said "a number of patients" are being rushed into the hospital with "extreme dehydration, some of which can get to the point of kidney failure or weakening kidney function".
He said there have already been up to 30 cases of hepatitis A, which has a long incubation period.
"After a month there will be an explosion in the number of cases of hepatitis A, and this is a very dangerous indicator that should be paid attention to, from overcrowding and consuming food not fit for human consumption and using shared toilets," said Dr al Farra.

This is about the end of the siege at Adwan hospital - Al Jazeera have been posting an entirely different account since yesterday ie that these 70 people arrested are medical staff and patients -and 2 patients have died as a result of the staff being removed from duty

There are MSF doctors there so maybe we'll get a clearer picture from them?

The IDF has said that more than 70 militants were arrested during an intelligence operation at the Adwan hospital in Gaza city.

In footage posted on social media, several of the prisoners were shown exiting the building shirtless and placing weapons on the ground.

The exercise was carried out with the IDF and Shin Bet, Israel’s Security Service.
Gunmen were killed, the IDF says. Those arrested are being questioned by the Shin Bet.

Unless of course it's MSF doctors who have been taken away by Shin Beit

@Efacsen that's a very concerning update.
The IDF have had the most amount of losses this week. I hope these videos of alleged fighters surrendering are not being made just to boost morale.
According to the IDF all or most of the 70 members in the hospital were Hamas? And they all surrendered too?
Yes it's good thing MSF doctor was there I hope they provide a update

Away from Gaza, in the occupied West Bank, Israeli forces have shot and killed an unarmed teenage boy inside the Khalil Suleiman hospital compound in Jenin, according to the charity Médecins Sans Frontières (Doctors Without Borders).
MSF says earlier this morning Israeli troops also stopped ambulances taking discharged patients home outside the hospital in the north of the occupied West Bank.
Paramedics and ambulance drivers were "ordered out of the ambulances, stripped and made to kneel in the street" while the patients were left inside the vehicles, it adds.
MSF says all this took place "in full view of our team".

Gets worse by the day
Done in plain sight

Absolutely awful in the West Bank. There's no protection for these people at all.

It’s pretty brazen and blatant. Right out in the open. Zero shame. “The only democratic civilised country in the ME.” “The world’s most moral army.” Perhaps there’s a translation issue because my dictionary doesn’t define those words the way theirs seems to.

@stormy4319trevor it really is
And now that it's clear that there is no intention for a two state solution I feel it will only get worse for the Palestinians there.
