Five tiny infants died starving, cold and alone. Their bodies decomposed. They were still connected to ventilation and intravenous tubes, 17 days after Israeli soldiers stormed the al-Nasr pediatric hospital and ordered doctors to leave
The spokesperson for the Palestinian health ministry in Gaza confirmed to AFP on Wednesday that “Israeli soldiers had blocked access to the intensive care unit at Al-Nasr pediatric facility, and doctors were finally ‘able to get into the ward on Tuesday night.’”
The parents of the fragile newborns were apparently told by the Israeli military that the Red Cross would evacuate their babies safely, according to testimonies.
But that did not happen.
Journalist Muhammad Baalusha of the Dubai-based broadcaster Al Mashhad recorded the video of the horrific scene inside al-Nasr Hospital on Tuesday.
