American doctors describe conditions in Gaza's hospitals
Two American doctors who worked in Gaza describe children being shot deliberately and hospitals systematically destroyed — a damning picture of the war and of U.S. weapons funding it.
- A survey of 100 American doctors who worked in Gaza found 83% saw a child shot in the head or chest every single day they were there.
- Israeli forces followed the same pattern at hospital after hospital: shell the area, surround it, cut off food, water and power, then raid and wreck the equipment.
- One hospital lost power to 38 babies in incubators after its solar panels were shelled; eight of the babies died.
- Aid was blocked at scale — miles of stalled trucks at the border, and even personal surgical instruments and antibiotics confiscated.
- Palestinian-American doctors are being denied entry based on where their parents or grandparents were born, blocking them from working alongside colleagues.
Outlook: With no accountability for past killings and U.S. weapons still flowing, the pressure now shifts to Congress and to the documentary work pushing these accounts into public view.
