    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    “The smell of blood is everywhere,” says Dr. Mohammad Mattar, head of the radiology department at Al Shifa Hospital, the Gaza Strip’s largest medical complex.

    As the war between Hamas and Israel grinds into its seventh day with a blockade that’s sealed off Gaza from the rest of the world, the medical situation for Gazans is increasingly desperate.

    Israel launched its first retaliatory strike in Gaza several hours after the unprecedented attack by Hamas militants began early Saturday morning.

    Ghassan Abu-Sittah, a plastic and reconstructive surgeon based in London who traveled to Gaza early in the week to tend the wounded, reports similar injuries among patients at Al Awda hospital.

    WHO and King Abdullah II of Jordan have called upon the immediate establishment of a humanitarian corridor to get urgently needed food, water and medical supplies to Palestinians within Gaza who have been sealed off by an absolute blockade.

    And now, the Israeli military has ordered over a million Palestinians to evacuate the north half of Gaza as their siege of the embattled area progresses into its next phase — a widely expected ground invasion accompanying further air strikes.

    I have it on good authority (Anthony Blinken) that once Israel takes out all the kidney dialysis machines and baby incubators they will stop the bombing. /s
