Zeinat al-Jundi, 56, was staying at the al-Ahli Arab Hospital in Gaza City with her husband, who was injured in a bombing in the city’s Shuja’iyya neighborhood last week. Doctors had amputated his legs as a result of his injuries, and he remained at the hospital during his recovery period. Al-Jundi is her husband’s only companion, staying with him all night to attend to his needs.
At 1:00 a.m. on last Sunday, a man entered the hospital’s reception area, shouting that the Israeli army was speaking to him on the phone and ordering everyone to evacuate.
Once the evacuation order was confirmed, everyone attempting to leave the hospital ended up injured in the rush. An injured child died during the evacuation as he could not receive urgent medical treatment. “There were mutilated bodies, children — I swear they were children — with their hands torn and amputated,” al-Jundi said, stating that everyone in the ward was already wounded from last week’s airstrikes. “More than 10 wounded children were in the ward. Everyone was bleeding.”
“Those who could get up and leave, left. Some dragged their patients on the hospital bed to the street, and others like me couldn’t move; I couldn’t carry my husband and take him out of the hospital, so I waited for death alongside him,” al-Jundi said.
The Israeli army bombed the Anglican-run al-Ahli Arab Hospital — locally known by its former name, the Baptist Hospital — in the predawn hours of Sunday morning. According to the Ministry of Health in Gaza, two airstrikes targeted the hospital’s only reception building, the radiology department, the hospital pharmacy, the laboratories, and even a church inside the hospital, which had been converted into an additional reception area for the wounded.
