Many Al-Aqsa Hospital victims are children and women: Doctor
Dr Fahd al-Haddad, the head of the emergency department at Al-Aqsa Hospital, says many of the victims of the Israeli attack are children and women with third-degree burns. Many patients are being treated on the floor of the hospital as it has run out of space for medical care, he said.
“This is the seventh time there’s been an attack inside Al-Aqsa Hospital. We received about 50 injured people inside the emergency department. We need a burn unit, which is not available inside the hospital. But we’re trying our best to give them what we can to save their lives,” al-Haddad told Al Jazeera.
Without specialized care, at least five patients face complications such as sepsis and organ failure, he said.
‘So many charred bodies all over the place’
Palestinians in Gaza are waking up to the aftermath of the Israeli attack on Al-Aqsa Hospital in Deir el-Balah, which killed at least four people and injured dozens as fire swept through tents where displaced people were sheltering.
“What happened was that we woke up to smoke, flames, fire and burning pieces falling on the tents from every direction. The explosions terrified us in our tents and outside where we live behind Al-Aqsa Hospital,” Om Ahmad Radi, a survivor at the scene, told Al Jazeera.
“The fire trucks couldn’t get here. There were so many burned and charred bodies all over the place. The amount of fire and explosions was enormous. We witnessed one of the most horrible and brutal nights.”

Gaza ministry slams Israel’s attack on Al-Aqsa Hospital
Gaza’s Health Ministry condemned the “direct targeting” of the hospital in Deir el-Balah in an attack that killed four people and injured dozens.
The Israeli attack “caused a large fire in the tents of the displaced and the hospital facilities”, a statement said. There are serious cases among the wounded, most of whom are displaced children and women, it added.
“We reiterate our appeal to the international and UN institutions as well as the concerned parties to intervene urgently to protect hospitals and health workers from the brutality and crimes of the [Israeli] occupation.”

‘It’s a horror show’: Doctor describes aftermath of Gaza hospital attack
Dr Mohammed Tahir, a volunteer surgeon, is dealing with the carnage after Israel’s attack on Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital in central Gaza.
Tahir said he and his overwhelmed team were already dealing with another mass casualty incident – the Israeli shelling of a school sheltering displaced Palestinians in Nuseirat – when victims from the hospital attack came streaming in.
“We were inundated. We had women, men, children as young as one year of age dying in front of our eyes,” Tahir told Al Jazeera from outside the hospital.
“I have spoken to countless individuals who witnessed some of the horrors. People are traumatised. I think it’s fair to say that people have really got to the point now where they feel there is no hope – no one is coming to help them, no one is coming to save them.”
Tahir said they are dealing with patients with burns on 60 to 80 percent of their bodies – many who won’t survive.
“Patients with significant high percentage burns, unfortunately, their fate is sealed. They won’t even make it to the ICU. They will die.”
“It’s a horror show here. Honestly, sometimes I feel like this is not real life – that this can go on and this degree of suffering is allowed to happen in this world.”
