Egyptian Doctors Volunteer to Treat Those Wounded in Israeli Attacks on Gaza
Osama Abdel-Hay said on Sunday that nearly 1,200 medical doctors of the country had by then registered to help Gazans wounded in the attacks, RT Arabic reported.
He said the list of those ready to go to Gaza is ready and coordination has been made with the Egyptian foreign ministry to dispatch them to the coastal enclave.
Abdel-Hay also contacted medical officials in Gaza for information on the needs of the hospitals there including medicines and medical equipment.
So far, the Israeli bombardments have killed at least 192 Palestinians, including 58 children and 34 women, with the death toll expected to rise any minute in what has turned to be the deadliest night of the ongoing onslaught which began on Monday.
The asymmetrical Gaza war was triggered by repeated acts of violence against Palestinians in the occupied West Bank beginning last month and continuing to this day.
Since the commencement of the holy month of Ramadan, Israeli forces and settlers have harassed Palestinian worshipers at al-Aqsa Mosque. The regime’s military also forced Palestinians out of their homes in the occupied east Jerusalem al-Quds neighborhood of Sheikh Jarrah to add to its illegal settlements.
