Doctors and medical personnel at the Indonesian Hospital in Jabalia are frantically pleading for aid in voice messages to the international community as Mr. Etzion and I speak.
The news received a message from a senior nurse who speaks wearily about the relentless restrictions that the Israelis occupying Jabalia are allegedly enforcing.
He says, “My friend, I’m exhausted.” “The amount of fatigue I feel is beyond words. There is no water. There is no water here. We requested permission from the Israeli military to charge the water tank, but they refused. Furthermore, we have no idea what will occur tomorrow. The circumstances are dire.
I apologize for my profanity; I’m having trouble speaking. says another nurse. I feel quite tired and lightheaded. Since yesterday, I have not eaten. We don’t eat the food we find, but we do our best to share it with the patients and their relatives.
As the Israeli army continues its onslaught against what it claims is an attempt by Hamas to reorganize, tens of thousands of Palestinians are currently escaping Jabalia.
Mr. Etzion is concerned about his nation and the people of Jabalia. Norms are being eroded in a very hazardous way. He claims that there is a pervasive feeling of anger and retaliation.
