Heartbreaking Phonecall From Gaza Doctor Working In Israel After Finding out His Daughters Had Just Been Killed By IDF Tank Fire

Another tragedy in Gaza: Ch 10 Israel were taking a call from a Gaza doctor during an interview on the war when he finds out 3 of his children have just been killed in Israeli tank fire,Dr. Ezzeldeen Abu al-Aish, a gynecologist from Gaza who works in Israel, lost three of his eight children in an Israel Defense Forces shelling, Channel 10 reported Friday.

Two of Abu al-Aish's daughter are hospitalized at the Barzilai Medical Center in Ashkelon and the Sheba Medical Center at Tel Hashomer in serious condition.

Dr. Abu al-Aish is a fertility expert who has been working at the Sheba Medical Center for the past few years and researching the treatment of Palestinian and Israeli children at the Gertner Institute. He also worked at the Soroka Medical Center for many years.

An initial IDF inquiry revealed that a tank fired back at the Jabalya refugee camp. After learning that Abu Al-Aish's family members had been hurt, the Coordination and Liaison Authority at the Erez crossing decided to evacuate the injured.

A Palestinian ambulance led the wounded to the Erez crossing, where they were transferred to an Israeli ambulance. The investigation into the incident continues.

Prof. Ze'ev Rothstein, director-general of the Sheba Medical Center, told Ynet, "Since the operation began, Dr. Abu al-Aish returned to Gaza to be with his daughters. There are not enough words to describe the tragedy which has hit this man of all people, who does everything for the treatment of children and studied the health of children in Gaza and Israel.

Dr. Abu al-Aish arrived at the Sheba Medical Center where he works as a gynecologist on Friday night. "I had three beautiful daughters who loved to help people. They were soldiers of peace," he said.

"I hope this is the end. If this death satisfies the leadership, my children should be the last to die," he told his colleagues at the hospital.

Abu al-Aish was not at home when the tank hit the building, and learned of his daughters' death when he got there.


"I wanted to devote my life to the girls. ---I only lost my wife several months ago,"--- he told the many friends who arrived at the hospital.

Many of the doctor's acquaintances including reporters, human rights activists and physicians who have worked with him arrived at the hospital immediately after the incidents.


Dr. Liat Lerner-Geva, Director of the Women and Children's Health Research Unit at the Gertner Institute, who has worked with Dr. Abu al-Aish on his research, told Ynet, "I don't know how this man will get back on his feet after this tragedy."

She said that she had tried to contact the doctor immediately after watching the report on television.

"He returned to Gaza on Thursday before the operation began. He went to see the children and was supposed to return to Israel on Monday, but on Monday he could no longer return.

"He would arrive in Israel and stay with friends three nights a week. Although he had permits, they would always give him trouble at the crossings. He believed in coexistence and practiced it in his work," she said.

Dr. Abu al-Aish's study examined the treatment of Palestinian children at Israeli hospitals. As opposed to Israeli children who are released after a short while, the Palestinians children usually remain hospitalized in Israel for a long time because the treatment and follow-up cannot be continued in the Strip.

No matter your race, religion, or the color of your skin, "NEVER do on to OTHERS, that YOU do not want DONE to YOURSELF"! Its a simple saying, but much harder to practice. Challenge yourself and try to live by this saying. We could have a peaceful world, think about it!  STOP THE HATE!!!

@medad1 This Planet is a Terrorist State. I pray that God Comes and Straightens us out soon.

[oblongjoeisreal]

We must. All of us, Muslim, Christian, Jew, Agnostic, do everything in our power to take away this heritage of hate and violence. Until you and I forgive ourselves as we forgive those who have trespassed against us, We are all guilty as Sin. War is a hopeless situation brought on by ignorance and fear, and we have become very good at it. If Christ could see us he would puke himself to death. I pray we can do better. God help us when all we have is a prayer, Faith without works is dead.

Israel is a terroristic state

USA is the same

both of them axes of evil

[CarajilloDulce]

Israel will never amount to anything more than a terrorist state whilst the current policies of greed and aggression are maintained. The cost of such a state, financially, and more importantly in lost lives, is too high. This is no longer about the security of the Jewish people but about a lust for land and power by a minority of religious fanatics little better than the nazis that caused the horrendous holocaust.

Sure, tragic but the IDF only "Responds" to the rockets the pals shoot at ppl like me and other innocent tourists. So what is their excuses? They have none . Go near a war zone and expect to be safe? Where did logic and common sense go to lately?Yet the world thinks the pals are so great and righteous and justified. I am sad for the doctor yet islum rejoices in their fruits of harm to humanity. Read the qu'ran. Can't miss it!
