Sahwil, who was displaced from the northern to central Gaza as a result of the devastating Israeli war, said she was working as a pediatrician in the intensive care department at the al-Nasr Children’s Hospital when the “Israeli crime” occurred on Nov. 10. “We prepared to go out with the children who were on ventilators, but the army entered the hospital and told us to leave them and that an international team would come and transfer them."
“No one took them from the hospital, they remained there until they died and their bodies decomposed,” she noted.
