DIRECTOR OF AL-SHIFA MEDICAL COMPLEX: We are receiving large numbers of wounded, starving, and sick people, and we are losing dozens of lives daily.

If the occupation carries out its threats to invade Gaza City, it will lead to massacres against the population. 1.2 million Palestinians live in Gaza City, and any military operation will result in disasters. We hope the conscience of the world will awaken to tell the occupation: enough genocide and starvation.
