Chilling images come from the Sifa hospital attacked by Israel: corpses were scattered everywhere
The images published after Israel’s attack on Shifa Hospital, the largest hospital in Gaza, were on the agenda of international public opinion…
Israeli soldiers entered Gaza’s largest hospital on Wednesday and attacked, ransacking the rooms and basement.
It was announced that 4-year-old Ahmet, whose photo was published by Reuters, was attacked twice and lost his family and some of his limbs.
The Israeli administration claimed that the reason for the attack on Shifa Hospital was that Hamas established its headquarters in the tunnels beneath the hospital. For this reason, Israel claimed that it had made the hospital the main target of the ground operation.
The world’s attention is focused on the fate of the hundreds of patients and thousands of displaced civilians trapped inside. Gaza authorities say many patients, including three newborn babies, have died in recent days as a result of Israel’s siege of the facilities.
The bodies are scattered around the Şifa hospital.
Israel said its soldiers killed fighters in a clash outside the gates and brought medical supplies for those inside.
Speaking to Reuters by phone, surgeon Dr Ahmed El Mohallalati said staff went into hiding as clashes continued outside the hospital throughout the night. Mohallalati said: “Last night it started early… there was gunfire around and inside the hospital. And the sound was really terrible. Look, you can feel, you know, it’s very close to the hospital. And then we realized that the tanks were moving around the hospital. “One of the large tanks entered the hospital through the east front door and parked in front of the hospital’s emergency department,” he said.
Speaking fearfully to Reuters, the doctor said: “All kinds of weapons are being used in the hospital. The hospital is the direct target. “We try to stay away from the windows,” he said.
There is fear and panic in the Şifa hospital.
A Gaza resident who experienced the incident and did not want to give his name said: “They searched every floor and room. “There was no conflict inside because there are no armed people here,” he said.
The extent of the violence was revealed in photographs published by Reuters in the morning. Although there are bodies of those who died in the attack and those who lost their lives due to the lack of electricity, medicine and water in the hospital, it is also seen that the building is unusable.
