‘I’ll walk again’: Hope for injured Palestinians crossing into Egypt
Al JazeeraThe Rafah border opening represents a chance at life for dozens of Palestinians wounded in Israel’s war on Gaza. “The medical capabilities in Gaza are limited, and the doctors weren’t able to deal with the child’s condition,” says the uncle as he tries to calm Sammour, while preparing him to leave Nasser Hospital in Gaza’s southern city of Khan Younis. “His treatment in Egypt represents hope and an opportunity for him to live.” On Wednesday, the staff of Nasser Hospital — and families — were busy assisting 19 patients as they boarded ambulance vehicles that ushered them to the Rafah crossing. ‘Rescue them before they, too, die’ The director of Nasser Hospital, Dr Nahed Abu Taaema, says that many of the remaining wounded are in desperate need of treatment.
