Subject: 13 days offensive on Gaza
Half an hour back, two missles targeted an apartment nearby my home; it washorrible and deadly; my children cried out of fear!
I was plying cards with my children to put them in an atmosphere of normal life. In the blast, two men died and two others injured.
Its the same place where 4 people killed in day one with the first attack on the preventive security aparatus compound.
In Gaza, last night was so horrible with more than 60 air raids, added to non-stop tanks and artillery shelling to different places everywhere!
No place is safe at any moment in Gaza! Words stand short from descirbing the horrors we have been through those days. Last night was one of the toughest!
There was no moment of quiteness in the daytime or sleep at night!
In Rafah, 80 homes were hit by heliocapters! There were sporadic targetings of other parts in Khan Younis, Al-Maghazi refugee camp, Al-Buraij refugee camp.
Jabalia village, Beach refugee camp. The death toll ! is on the rise with more than 30 died today let alone the injured.
Among the dead was an UNRWA truck driver as his truck was hit too.
Another UNRWA employee was injured. So far 10 paramedics lost their lives while working to save lives of others!
Death tool jumps up to 800 anf the injured to more than 3100.
Gaza poorly equipped hospitals are unable to manage those casulties.
