Red Crescent ambulance centre under siege in Jabalia, southern Gaza
Nebal Farsakh, a media communications officer at the Palestine Red Crescent Society (PRCS), has told Al Jazeera that her organisation’s ambulance centre in Gaza’s Jabalia has been under siege for two days.
“There is artillery shelling, and gunfire has been going on from the Israeli occupation forces since yesterday. There is no way anyone can go out of the centre. The safety of our teams is at risk,” she said from Ramallah in the occupied West Bank. “There are around 127 people who are trapped inside our ambulance centre, including paramedics, volunteers, their families and 22 injured individuals.”
Farsakh added that no hospitals were operating in the northern part of Gaza.
“They were bombing the hospitals, besieging the hospitals, arresting the medical teams of the hospitals. Up to this moment, there are about 100 medical teams arrested by the Israeli occupation forces, including the directors of many hospitals,” she said.
