DaysofPal- The director of the Kamal Adwan Hospital, Hussam Abu Safiya, said on Thursday that the homes of citizens in northern Gaza have turned into graves for them after they were bombed over their heads.
Abu Safiya added that any wounded citizen who is buried under the rubble of his home die because there are no rescue equipment or teams to remove the debris and save them.
“What breaks our hearts is that we are still receiving appeals for help from people under the rubble, breathing, talking and asking to save them, but we cannot do anything to them due to the scarcity of resources, so they die within days and their homes turn into graves for them,” Abu Safiya explained.
Abu Safiya also said that the Israeli occupation army attacks wounded civilians as they walk to the Kamal Adwan Hospital, affirming that six wounded people were killed and 15 others were injured in an Israeli strike after they arrived at the hospital’s gate on Wednesday morning.
“We are talking about days that have gone from bad to worse for the health system in northern Gaza. We have a shortage of medical capabilities, so we provide the bare minimum of services,” he pointed out.
He appealed to the world to urgently send special medical delegations as well as ambulances and civil defense crews to northern Gaza.
At least 43,736 people have been killed and 103,370 wounded in Israeli military attacks on Gaza since October 7, 2023, the enclave’s Health Ministry says.
Of those, 24 Palestinians were killed and 112 wounded in the latest 24-hour reporting period, the ministry added.
