BBC operator fixes Israeli strike to the gas hospital

The horrors of the war multiply. Dead, pieces of the dead. Dies. Starving. Now more and more – the whole mass of human suffering, which is evidenced by the brave colleagues in Gaza.

The urge to avoid our view can overcome. But operators working on the BBC cannot turn away, and on Tuesday one of them became a victim. For their security, we do not reveal the names of our colleagues in Gaza.

Our operator was not seriously injured, but it was a matter. Israeli bombs launched at the European Hospital in Han UNIS killed and wounded dozens.

The Israelis say the leader Hamas was hiding in the team and control connection under the hospital. The army stated that she had a “accurate strike” – and accused Hamas of “cynical and harshly operating civilian population in and around him”. Hamas denies such accusations.

At the time of the attack, the families whose sick children should be evacuated from the gas gathered in the hospital. There were also families waiting for meetings with children returning from treatment abroad.

One parent was with our BBC colleague and was injured by bombs. Now he was discharged from the hospital. Painful images show our journalist who tries to comfort the horrible children.

Warning: This report contains unpleasant images.

Most of my colleague’s work in recent days has been focused on the difficult position of unsuccessful children.

Not long before the explosion I reported to thank him for his work, with great sensitivity, the story of Sivar Ashur. It was his answer:

“The story of Sivara broke something in all of us, and the work on it was one of the most painful things I had to do. But I knew her face, her name, and her story had to be seen – it was necessary to hear.”

The gray is five months and is sharply malnutrition, the baby whose large, brown eyes dominate her fastened frame. They follow every step of her mother. On Tuesday, Najwa sent us a video message from her room at the Nasher Hospital in South Gas.

She wanted the world to know how much she loved her child. “I want her to get her treatment she needed to fully recover and return, as before – to play, as other children, grow and gain weight like other children. She is my first child, and like her mother, I am deeply broken for her.”

The lacking, frightened baby with huge eyes looks at the camera and cries.

Sivar Subura has progressive malnutrition and does not tolerate milk formula

In the last few days, Sivar has developed the skin. Ulcers appeared on her hands. She also has a strong condition of the gastrointestinal tract. The battle is to keep the power inside it. Its immune system fights deprivation caused by an Israeli blockade.

The cry of the child is weak, but he is full of urgency, the sound of life that fights for his survival. Sivwa can only drink a special formula of milk from a strong allergy.

On Tuesday, some best news appeared. Doctors at the neighboring Jordana field hospital were able to find some formulas she needed. This is a small amount, but they plan to send more.

The woman closed her eyes and looked at the border of tears. You can see the baby in the background.

Children Osm al-Nashash stuck in gas

In the coming days it is planned to bring sick children to the United Arab Emirates and Jordan. Here, Oman already has several gas families who treat children from illness or military injuries in local hospitals. These evacuations are agreed with the Israelis who make a check for parents who travel with their children.

In January, we shot the arrival of Abdelrahman al-Nashash and his mom Osma. Abdelrahman lost his foot in Israeli bombing.

For four months they lived in a place with food and shelter. Safe place.

When we visited them on Tuesday, Osma called their children and their grandmothers in Gaza.

Grandma said most about the war around them. “There is rockets everywhere, shooting on the head. Food. Life is very bad. No. Prices are very high.”

The children waved and undermined their mother’s kisses.

After that, Osma said to us, “I don’t know what to say. I am very grateful for my mom for everything she is doing for me. I would like to go back to find them safe and in good health.” She broke and remained silent.

Only the eyes of the mother, who sees her children trapped, were scared and hungry from a safe distance, you can imagine why anyone would like to return to gas.
