Kamal Adwan hospital director appeals to ‘entire world’ for help to save Gaza’s sick, dying

Hussam Abu Safia, director of the Kamal Adwan Hospital in northern Gaza, spoke to Al Jazeera earlier about the continuing Israeli military siege of his medical facility, which has also previously come under attack by Israel’s military.

“The Kamdal Adwan Hospital and the entire vicinity is a warzone. The hospital is left with no resources. No medical supplies and no medical staff,” Dr Abu Safia told Al Jazeera.

“This is because many of our specialised doctors and surgeons have been detained. It is only me together with a single paediatrician – who cannot perform any surgery to the wounded – that are left inside the hospital. Above all, patients and the injured are strewn all over the hospital floor,” Dr Abu Safia said.

“We appeal to the entire world to have a safe humanitarian passage opened immediately, and without any delay. We need specialised medical staff in all major disciplines to be allowed in,” he said.

“I received a wounded child who is in dire need of abdominal surgery, to stop his internal bleeding before he loses his life. Many children have their bones sticking out of their bodies, requiring urgent orthopaedic surgeries. Many are suffering from brain injuries and require delicate procedures,” he added.

Israeli military offers Palestinians in north Gaza a ‘false choice’ for survival: Analyst

Ardi Imseis, professor at Queen’s University in Canada and former legal adviser to UNRWA, told Al Jazeera that Israel’s military is reportedly carrying out an operation in northern Gaza designed to “conquer” the territory at the expense of the civilian population.

“The Israelis, as the occupying power, have an obligation to protect the Palestinian population in the territory and based on what the Israeli media are reporting, they are now rolling out something called the ‘General’s Plan’, according to which Israel has set out to conquer northern Gaza by presenting a false choice to some 470,000 Palestinians survivors there,” Imseis told Al Jazeera.

“The first choice is for them to go south to al-Mawasi on foot, or donkey cart or what have you. Ostensibly to be in a safe space, even though these places have been bombarded indiscriminately. They will be starved there. They will be besieged there,” Imseis said.

“Or, second, remain in north Gaza only to be subjected again to another sieged and to be deprived of food, fuel, water, et cetera. It’s a false choice, of course,” he said.

“Evidence provided by the United Nations demonstrates that this plan, as I said, is now being rolled out,” he added.
