Israeli soldiers stormed Nasser Hospital overnight, forcing patients and staff to evacuate the last major functional medical facility in southern Gaza. Dr. Mohammad Harara, whom NBC News has been following at Nasser since December, joined an estimated 1 million displaced Gazans crammed in the southern border town of Rafah. But throughout the violence and upheaval Thursday, he continued to treat the sick and the wounded.
Man these doctors are heroes. They have turned off all emotion. They just go go go.
Have to amputate kids legs without anesthetics. Remove shrapnell from eyes and cauterize then. C sections without anesthetics. Even during the night using a smarphone flash as lighting. And more… With less and less supplies each dsh And they keep going for 48 hours or more at a time
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Israeli soldiers stormed Nasser Hospital overnight, forcing patients and staff to evacuate the last major functional medical facility in southern Gaza.
Dr. Mohammad Harara, whom NBC News has been following at Nasser since December, joined an estimated 1 million displaced Gazans crammed in the southern border town of Rafah.
Video shot Thursday shows Harara helping pull a patient in a dark hoodie from a car, holding the young man’s head gently but firmly as the crew races him into a noisy and crowded tented field hospital.
NBC News has spent dozens of hours with Harara as he does his rounds in wards brimming with patients, recording how he copes with the gravely injured, the grief-stricken and the terrified — all while surrounded by soldiers, tanks and fighting.
Dr. Ashraf Al-Qudra, a spokesperson for Gaza’s Health Ministry, said that Israeli forces had targeted the facility’s ambulance headquarters and tents housing displaced people on the site.
With the winter sun shinning brightly and a chilly breeze ruffling aquamarine Mediterranean waters just beyond the camp’s edge, the family soon got down to sharing a meal — traditional bread with lentils and ruby red tomatoes.
