The massacres need to stop. Families are being torn apart. What’s clear now is that humanitarian aid to Gaza must be allowed immediately.
The people there are in terrible conditions,” said Salah. Describing the scenes at Al-Ahli Al-Arabi hospital, where Israeli forces have been accused of carrying out an attack thought to have killed over 500 people, the Liverpool forward said: “The scenes at the hospital last night were horrifying.”
