Subject: Attack on Gaza - Day 15
Death is everywhere. More than 70 air raids last night + 30 ir raids today! Hundreds of children and women died in theraids!
You cannot imagine the havoc and destruction.
People are unable to cope with the ongoings of the bombing.
Whole families were killed under the rubble of bombed buildings!
Tanks move slowly towards the city. Night is horrendous and children express jubilation to see day light at dawn!
They can hadly sleep for continuous hours with raids here, shelling there and heavy machine guns in the distance.
Now, an F16 is flying over our heads.
The whole city suffers food problem; of course, there are no fruits and vegetables at all. Situation of electricity and water are still bad.
Today, some areas in Gaza received electric power for two hours!
Gaza is on the verge of humanitarian and environmental crises!
Health situation and poor hospitals are collapsing! Sometimes one cannot express what's going on around him!
