British surgeon describes "Real Massacre" at aid distribution center in Gaza
Gaza – Saba:
British surgeon Victoria Rose described the situation at the Nasser Medical Complex in Khan Younis, southern Gaza, on Sunday as the result of a "real massacre" after the hospital received dozens of wounded following an Israeli attack on Palestinians at an aid distribution site in Rafah.
In a short video shared by the Palestinian Ministry of Health in Gaza on its Facebook account, the British surgeon, working in the emergency department of the medical complex, said: "This morning, Sunday, gunfire broke out at an aid distribution center run by the so-called 'Gaza Humanitarian Foundation' in Rafah, southern Gaza. A large number of wounded were transported to local field hospitals."
Dr. Rose explained that Nasser Medical Complex received a significant number of casualties, stating that local sources reported around 200 people injured by live ammunition. She added, "The situation here is a real massacre."
Earlier, the Government Media Office in Gaza announced in a statement that 32 Palestinians were killed and more than 250 others injured, including dozens in critical condition, since early Sunday morning in Rafah.
Earlier on Sunday, Gaza's Health Ministry stated that "every martyr who arrived at the hospitals had been shot with a single bullet to the head or chest, confirming the enemy's intent to carry out direct and horrific killings of civilians."
With American and European support, the Israeli enemy army has been committing genocidal crimes in Gaza since October 7, 2023, resulting in the deaths of 54,418 Palestinian citizens, the majority of whom are children and women, and injuring 124,190 others—figures that are not yet final. Thousands of victims remain trapped under rubble or in the streets, unreachable by rescue and medical teams.

41% of Kidney Failure Patients in Gaza die during aggression
Gaza – SABA: The Ministry of Health in the Gaza Strip announced on Monday that 41% of kidney failure patients have died during the ongoing Zionist aggression on Gaza, due to being denied access to dialysis centers and the destruction of facilities dedicated to their care. In a press statement, the ministry confirmed that Israeli forces demolished the Noura Al-Kaabi Dialysis Center in northern Gaza, which had been providing essential dialysis services to kidney patients. The ministry warned of the severe consequences of the center's destruction on the health of kidney patients, describing the situation as a 'disaster with unforeseeable outcomes.' It noted that the occupation forces are systematically working to eliminate hospitals and specialized care centers from northern Gaza. A report by the Palestinian Center for Human Rights, issued on May 20, highlighted that 41% of kidney failure patients have died due to repeated displacement and the drastic reduction in dialysis hours from 12 to just 4 hours per week. The report further revealed that six out of the seven centers providing dialysis services in Gaza have been either completely destroyed or rendered inoperable—four in Gaza City and the northern governorates, and two in the central and southern areas. It added that 472 kidney failure patients—41% of the total 1,200 patients—have died since October 7, with the majority of deaths occurring in Gaza City and the north. The fatalities were primarily due to the destruction of dialysis centers and the patients' inability to attend their sessions regularly, which led to the deterioration of their health and ultimately their deaths.

British doctor working in Gaza: We face daily influx of injured, amputated children
London – Saba: A British doctor working in the Gaza Strip said she faces a daily influx of children arriving at the hospital with amputated limbs. British doctor Victoria Rose told The Sunday Times: "First there's the six-year-old girl whose left cheek and shoulder were amputated, then the two-year-old girl, the baby, the three-year-old orphan boy, the four-year-old boy, and the 11-year-old boy who lost all nine of his siblings." The 53-year-old doctor added: "We always start with the children. Most of those on my list are injured by explosions that have injured young children, including amputated arms, legs, and hands," according to the Palestinian news agency Safa. She continued, "It makes me feel very angry, but I can't stop thinking about them or stop working." Rose noted that on most days, she works 14 hours a day until 11:00 PM, after which she tries to get some rest in the women's dormitory behind the intensive care unit. The Israeli bombing usually begins at 4:00 AM. The British doctor noted that despite the long hours and exhaustion, she tries to continue her work by maintaining a video diary on Instagram to show people abroad, knowing that Israel does not allow foreign journalists into Gaza, and that doctors like her play an important role as "the eyes and ears of the outside world." With American and European support, the Israeli enemy army has been committing genocidal crimes in the Gaza Strip since October 7, 2023, resulting in the deaths of 54,470 Palestinian civilians, the majority of whom are children and women, and the injury of 124,693 others. To date, the death toll is incomplete, with thousands of victims still buried under the rubble and on the streets, unable to be reached by ambulance and rescue crews. Whatsapp Telegram Email Print
