A Doctor in Gaza Describes 'Horrific Scenes' After Israeli AirstrikesMy

NYT

“Gazans under bombardment say there is a surge of severely injured children entering hospitals, doctors operating without anesthesia and morgues overflowing with bodies.”

On Tuesday, after the first strike in Jabaliya, the hospital received about 40 people who did not survive, and 250 others who were wounded, he said. The numbers were nearly the same on Wednesday, when another strike hit. On Thursday, a strike damaged a United Nations school being used as a shelter and sent in another wave of patients: 10 dead and 80 others wounded.

“I’ve never in my life seen injuries this bad,” Dr. Abu Safyia said on Thursday by phone, adding, “We saw children without heads.”
