Decomposing Bodies of Premature Babies Discovered in Besieged Gaza Hospital

HeadlineNov 30, 2023

Also on Wednesday, the Palestinian Health Ministry in Gaza said it had discovered the decomposing remains of five premature Palestinian babies who were left to die after Israeli forces ordered medical staff to evacuate and blocked access to the intensive care unit at the al-Nasr pediatric hospital. Shocking footage filmed by the Dubai-based outlet Al Mashhad shows the babies still attached to ventilation and intravenous tubes as they lay lifeless in their hospital beds. Rights groups are calling for an international investigation.
