Gaza Hospitals Fail Under Israeli Bombardment; Doctors Without Borders Describes Horrific Conditions

Gaza's two largest hospitals are under a complete siege by Israeli forces and no longer functioning. Palestinian health officials have also accused Israel of using snipers to shoot at people inside Al-Shifa Hospital, where thousands of displaced Palestinians have sought refuge. Israel has claimed Hamas runs a command center below the hospital, though this has been denied by hospital staff and Israel has not publicly released any evidence behind the claim. Dr. Fadel Naim of Al-Ahli al-Arabi Hospital says surgeons are forced to operate in hospital corridors with limited anesthetic supplies. Unfortunately, we couldn't help many of these patients. Many of them died because we couldn't do anything for them." We also hear from Dr. Tanya Haj-Hassan, a pediatric intensive care physician with Doctors Without Borders who has worked in Gaza and the West Bank. She is a co-founder of the social media account Gaza Medic Voices. Anyone who tries to leave the hospital is targeted," says Haj-Hassan. We have descended into a very dark era for humanity."
