Hospital worker describes ‘devastating’ scenes after strikes
A medical official at Nasser Hospital said the scenes inside the facility are “devastating” following Israeli air strikes on Khan Younis.
Speaking to Al Jazeera, Mohammed Saqer said the hospital has received about 30 wounded people, in addition to seven bodies, most of them children. He said the hospital’s ICU is full, with large numbers of children currently on ventilators.
Saqer warned that a severe shortage of medical supplies is making it increasingly difficult for staff to provide appropriate healthcare, as the hospital struggles to cope with the scale of casualties.
