A surgeon who operated on a boy recovering from Israeli airstrikes has recounted the devastating moment he found his young patient killed in his hospital bed after a bomb hit surgical wards in Gaza.
Feroze Sidhwa told The Independent of the destruction the bomb wrought on the Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis on Sunday, describing the overpowering smell of smoke “like a barbecue” throughout the building and everyone being covered in soot, with the surgical ward completely destroyed, including windows blown out and rubble everywhere.
