Hussain al-Aiedy is stuck in the middle of the fight!
Husain al-Aiedy is a Palestinian (58 years of age) lives to the east of Gaza city. He has been living in the same place for more than 25 years.
His house is located in the middle of green fields. He is an UNRWA employess.
He isnow in one room with 20 others of his family, and families of two of his brothers.
They are packed in one small room without electricity, water, food or telephone!
just nothing around him except a battlefiled.
Last night at 10:30 p.m. Mr Al-Aiedy was caught in the middle of the fight and a shelllanded in his house to injure five of his family!
He has been appealing to have an ambulance to evacuate the injured but in vain. All appeals to sendhim an ambulance to evacuate the injured and if possible,
the rest of the family, have failed so far!
At a circle of more than one and half kilomteres the Israeli army is in total control, thus no one can reach Mr Al-Aiedyexcept the Israelis!
This situation needs an urgent humanitar! ian action byhuman rights organizations from anywhere!
There is no electricity, water and a little food in Gaza.
I am still taking the advantage of a generator that I operate by diesel to contact the world. Bombs fall like shower on us.
Unfortunately, Mr Al-Aiedy is in the heart of the battle!

Subject: Rain of missles and utter darkness in Gaza
In Gaza, we are caught in a rain of missles and a barage of artillery shells!
Its totally dark right now but it is interrupted by a buzzing soundof unmanned planes and heliocapters.
Streets are deserted! Between now and then, we hear sirenes of ambulances and fire brigades!
Civilians flee their homes in the north of Gaza towards the west of the city,
and they flee from Zaitoun neighbourhood to the Western parts! Civilains are vulnerable and who cares!
They are unprotected at all. Today, three paramedics dies while trying to save lives.
The dy before yesterday one medical doctor and a paramedic were killed too. Tonight,
all mobile phone net have been totally paralyzed now. Land telephone lines are bad, but it is working! Before dawn,
clouds of black smoke were everywhere in Gaza skies! Oooooops. right now,
land shakes under us! Booooooom!
