The young man, bound by zip-tie cuffs, delivered his Israeli captors’ message but was shot as he tried to walk out of the hospital gate.

In a video taken shortly after his arrival, his eyes are wide, dazed, and scared all at once. He had something to tell the thousands sheltering at the facility.

A crowd gathered around, according to Mohammed El Helou, one of the only remaining Palestinian journalists in the hospital, and the young handcuffed man said that the Israeli military had sent him with a message.

“Get out of the hospital, you need to get out of the hospital because they are going to blow it up.”

Abu Al-Ola was killed shortly after walking out of the hospital. According to El Helou, he was shot by an Israeli soldier three times in his chest and abdomen while still inside the gates of the hospital.

Al Serr, the Nasser Hospital doctor, confirmed the account of Abu Al-Ola being killed as he left the hospital. El Helou later got footage of Abu Al-Ola’s corpse in a body bag, still robed in his PPE.

    I doubt you will watch this but I’m going to put the link to The Great Book Robbery here for others to see a response to your ridiculous flawed final paragraph.

    Before Israel existed, before the Zionists came into Palestine in the late 1800s there were Christians, Jews, and Muslims living together in relative peace all over the Middle East.

    After WWII when the minority Zionist population with backing from Germany and Britain finally had the weapons and power to make an ethnostate, they seized land and absconded with many historical artifacts and literature from the Palestinians. They tried to erase their culture because without it the Palestinians could be portrayed as you have portrayed them, as hardly evolved, like human animals.
