Under the rubble.
She pointed out that “what is happening in Gaza is genocide, as the occupation kills citizens and health teams, destroys and bombs treatment centers and ambulances, prevents the fuel needed for hospitals to operate, prevents the entry of urgent health supplies, prevents the wounded and sick from leaving the Strip for treatment, and also prevents the entry of medical teams.” On top of that, he escalated his aggression to completely separate the sector from the world by cutting off all lines of communication.”
