Hospital Inundated: Victims of Gaza Refugee Camp Attack Flood Emergency Rooms
Thirteen individuals, including seven children, have tragically lost their lives, and over 25 have sustained injuries following an attack on the Al-Maghazi refugee camp in central Gaza on Tuesday, according to officials from the Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital, as reported by News.ro.
A graphic video recording, exclusively obtained by CNN from eyewitness Nihad Owdetallah, depicts several victims, including children, strewn across the floor. Dozens of individuals can be observed fleeing in panic, screaming and attempting to count and transport the bodies. Among the deceased, a foosball table covered in dust is visible.
Footage filmed for CNN from inside the Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital captures a constant influx of victims and wounded individuals being brought in, while the emergency room is filled with patients, among them several injured children, who are crying on the floor. Family members are observed gathering around the bodies of their beloved ones, kissing them, and shedding tears.
A video recording from outside the hospital courtyard captures grieving individuals, particularly women, attempting to enter the hospital, lamenting for their loved ones. Dozens of individuals are observed gathering in the courtyard, offering prayers for the departed before their burial.
CNN has reached out to the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) for comments; however, a response has not been received as of yet.
