Dr. Ahmed Abunada, a Palestinian surgeon who fled Gaza amidst the Israel-Hamas conflict, recalls the dire conditions at Al-Shifa, the largest hospital in Gaza. Abunada faced heart-wrenching decisions due to power cuts, water shortages, and limited medical supplies. Al-Shifa was a key focus for the Israeli military, alleging Hamas’ use of a tunnel complex under the hospital, a claim denied by the Palestinian militants and hospital officials. Abunada, received in Germany along with other evacuees, highlighted the worsening conditions at Al-Shifa, emphasizing the need for international aid. The World Health Organization expressed concern over the detention of the hospital’s director, Mohammad Abu Salmiya, by Israeli forces.
