Hungry, terrified, and crammed into a small apartment, as intense Israeli bombardment rocked the area around them.

This is how Hadeel Saleh and her family of nine spent several days in March 2024 during a violent Israeli raid on Gaza City’s al-Shifa hospital and the surrounding neighbourhood.

Their ordeal was interrupted by dozens of Israeli soldiers storming the home without warning.

Without hesitation, they shot and killed her 60-year-old Palestinian father. When her older brother rushed to help, he too was gunned down.

During the raid on the hospital, Israeli forces had put it out of service and then went door to door to neighbouring buildings, killing at will and forcing survivors to flee.
