Palestinian Woman Testifies About Israeli Force’s Horrific Torture Including Rape In Al Shifa Hospital

Edited by Fathimathu Shana

Palestinian woman Jameela recounted horrific treatment received by the Israeli soldiers from Al Shifa hospital. Allegedly, ever since the Israeli army raided the largest hospital in the besieged Gaza Strip, stories coming out are unspeakable atrocities.

Al Jazeera Arabic reported about a Palestinian woman named Jamila Al-Hisi talking about her exit from the hospital. She was subjected to rape, starvation, torture, and extrajudicial execution, according to her. She also said the International Committee for the Red Cross are doing nothing.

She said they were being forced to drink dirty water and rotten food. She said, “we haven’t found food or water for six days and we appeal to the Red Cross to provide water for the children and the sick”.

The Palestinian said, the Israeli occupation force forced 65 families to elevate the area around the Al Shifa hospital complex where more than 30,000 displaced Palestinians sought sanctuary. She said the occupation burned and killed the entire families, in some instances. According to Jamila, the occupation burned the buildings they were barricaded in and they didn’t even had water to break their fast during Ramadan. She said the Palestinians are being forcibly displaced from the Medical Complex.

As usual, the Israeli occupation force cling to their claim of killing Hamas, while raiding and killing innocent civilians. Video clips said to be from the surrounding of the Al Shifa hospital featured sounds of gunfire in and around the hospital complex. The video also showed Israeli tanks and snipers.

The video footage also showed residential buildings surrounding the Al Shifa hospital complex completed destroyed. Though they were destroyed before the current siege, this time the Israeli military made sure they were flattened.

Reports also showed that the occupation force killed medical workers and patients alike. They killed Doctor Mohammed Zaher al-Nono, who refused to leave the hospital and insisted on continued to treat his patient. He was shot dead in front of his patients.
