A doctor believed to be the last remaining orthopaedic surgeon in northern Gaza has been killed by Israeli tankfire, according to Palestinian officials.
Dr Sayeed Joudeh died on Thursday while he was on his way to work.
He was a surgeon at Kamal Adwan and al-Awda hospitals in northern Gaza.
The Israeli military said it was unaware of the incident, but it was investigating.
The grandfather had come out of retirement to help during the war.
I can’t even comprehend that I’m really reading headlines like this. While the US government cheers from the sidelines. It’s unbelievable. Surreal. This is mass murder, massacre after massacre. This is complete and utter destruction. This is what erasing a whole people looks like. Destroying their culture, their homes, their infrastructure, their heritage, their safety, their history, their children, their health, their bodies, their minds, their dignity. It just never ends.
I don’t think they’re going to stop. I think they have pushed so far and wrought such utter devastation that Gaza is done for. That the Palestinian people and homeland will be completely destroyed. Israel has its sights on even bigger goals now that the world is (miserably) trying to prevent escalating. Gaza will never see a ceasefire while the US exists. Not unless the Israelis suddenly show mercy, and they never have before.
Maybe the most televised and publicized genocide in history. Brought to you by the US state department. Brought to you by zionism. Watching it for over a year has been a long nightmare that never ended. For families there, for children growing up surrounded by death disease devastation and disruption, the damage done is absolutely indescribable. Their are children who are the only living members of their families, who have lost their parents, every single cousin, every uncle, and every grandparent. Who just have no one left at all. And have the unimaginable weight of all the lives they saw cut short around them. There are 13 year old kids there who know they’ll be murdered by Israel. They know because it is happening to everyone around them. It has been happening since they were born.
May history never forget the crimes of the zionists, the US government and the European countries that still support Israel against humanity itself.
That’s what he gets for driving to work. Must have terrified the IDF to see this grandfather driving to a hospital. they were clearly just defending themselves.
You /fuckcars guys really have gone off the deep end.
Israelis unaware of their atrocities. What else is new.
unaware
It’s genocide. Killing of doctors and journalists is on purpose.
They’re still investigating stuff that happened on day one of their invasion. Nobody’s gotten punished for any of the high profile massacres.
Zionists and Republicans destroy health services
