Doctors killed in Gaza in israeli occupation forces attack 

The ongoing conflict in Gaza continues to take a devastating toll on civilians, including healthcare workers.

   The experiences of Dr. Ahmed Alfarra, the director of pediatrics and maternity at Nasser Hospital in southern Gaza, as he describes the immense challenges and heartbreaking losses faced by medical professionals and the community.

Dr. Alfarra shared that each day brings more sadness and shocking news. 

He mourned the loss of his colleague, Dr. Mousa Khafaja, an obstetrics and gynecology consultant, who was killed in a strike along with three of his children. Dr. Alfarra emphasized that Dr. Khafaja was not the first and likely will not be the last medical professional targeted in this conflict.

The loss of Dr. Khafaja has left medical staff afraid, worried, and under immense pressure. They are already exhausted from working non-stop since the beginning of the war, without any vacation or rest.

Dr. Khafaja had evacuated from Rafah to Khan Younis and was living in a tent, seeking safety. Despite the area being considered a safe zone, 

His tent was bombed,by israeli occupation forces resulting in his and some of his children's deaths. Dr. Alfarra described this as one of the most tragic stories one could hear.

It is important to remember that doctors, nurses, and other healthcare staff are also living in a bombard zone. They are dealing with mass casualties while facing the same dangers as everyone else.

Nasser Hospital has been overwhelmed with injuries, including many from the GHF food distribution centers.

 Dr. Alfarra reported that they receive 30 to 35 cases daily of people shot in the upper body, executed by snipers of Israeli occupation forces.

Additionally, around 150 people are injured, with 20% in critical condition and needing intensive care.

Malnutrition is increasing daily, with cases rising by nearly 50% each month. Since March, little to no food has entered Gaza, especially milk. Dr. Alfarra stressed the critical need for milk, particularly for premature babies in the neonatal ICU. These babies rely on formula as their only source of energy. Without it, their lives are at risk.

He shared a distressing story of a two-month-old infant who suffocated after being fed cooked vegetables because the family could not find any milk. 

The baby is now in the neonatal ICU, waiting for a procedure to remove the vegetables from his airways. Dr. Alfarra stated that this type of situation should not happen anywhere in the world.

Dr. Alfarra's words paint a grim picture of the dire situation of genocide in Gaza. The loss of medical professionals, the constant influx of casualties, and the growing malnutrition crisis highlight the urgent need for humanitarian aid and a peaceful resolution to the conflict.

Take Action: You can help by raising awareness about the crisis in Gaza and supporting organizations that provide humanitarian aid to those in need.

I hope you feel the pain of innocents
