Before the war, a group of Palestinian mothers were eligible to go to Jerusalem due to their high-risk pregnancies. For the past 6 months, the mothers have been living with their children in east Jerusalem hospital. But now, the Israeli government is sending them back to Gaza with no where to go and no support for their infant children.

“If I go back with the twins, where do I go with them? Where would I get diapers and milk? Gaza is not the same anymore!” one mother told @CNN.

Up to date, over 31000 Palestinians have been killed, 44% of which were children. What will be the fate of these mothers and children?

This is yet another method of torture the Israelis have discovered to eliminate as many Palestinians as possible.

قبل الحرب، كانت مجموعة من الأمهات الفلسطينيات مؤهلات للذهاب إلى القدس بسبب حالات حملهن عالية الخطورة. وعلى مدى الأشهر الستة الماضية، تعيش الأمهات مع أطفالهن في مستشفى القدس الشرقية. لكن الآن، تعيدهم الحكومة الإسرائيلية إلى غزة دون أي مكان يذهبون إليه أو دعم لأطفالهم الرضع.

“لو رجعت مع التوأم وين أروح معهم؟ من أين أحصل على الحفاضات والحليب؟ غزة لم تعد كما كانت بعد الآن!”، قالت إحدى الأمهات لشبكة CNN.

وحتى الآن، استشهد أكثر من 31 ألف فلسطيني، 44% منهم أطفال. فما هو مصير هؤلاء الأمهات والأطفال؟

وهذه طريقة أخرى للتعذيب اكتشفها الإسرائيليون للقضاء على أكبر عدد ممكن من الفلسطينيين.

English Script:
CNN reporter: Little Sara is barely six months old. Born in East Jerusalem, all she knows is the safety of this hospital room. This week, that will be torn away. War will become her new reality. “I might go back and they invade Rafah”, her mother, Nimah, says. “I’ll be the one responsible for anything that harms them. If I go back with the twins where do I go with them? Where would I get diapers and milk? Gaza is not the same anymore”. For nearly six months. These three mothers have been living, sleeping and nursing their five babies in this hospital room together. Before the war, their high risk pregnancies made them eligible to leave Gaza and give birth in Jerusalem hospitals. But now they’ve packed their bags after learning that the Israeli government is sending them back to Gaza, where Israel’s brutal military campaign has made survival a daily struggle. Hanan, the mother of twins, says “she’s scared of going back to Gaza without a ceasefire. There are diseases spreading infections, she says. It’s not a normal life”. They will be among the 22 Palestinians set to be bussed on Wednesday to the Kerem Shalom crossing in the South. Her husband is in the North and Hanan is still trying to find a place to live. Despite that uncertainty, Asma wants to return to Gaza. “My daughter is there, she needs me”, Asma says. “Every time she speaks to me, she asks when I’m coming back. Every time there’s an airstrike, children go to hug their mothers. Mine has no one to hug”. At nearby Augusta Victoria Hospital, nearly 50 Gazan cancer patients have been receiving treatment since before October 7th. Watching from afar as their families endure the horrors of war. For Mohammed, one of the ten who are in remission and being sent back to Gaza, being far away from his son Hamza, who was blind, has been the hardest to bear. But going back is also terrifying. “I’m torn”, he says. “The only wish I have in life is to go back home I regret even coming here for treatment. I wish I could be with them because I know how they need me”. In a statement, the Israeli agency in charge of their return said Patients who have received medical treatment and who are not in need of further medical care are returned to the Gaza Strip. After more than two months of pushing back on Israeli demands. Dr. Fadi Atrash says he was ordered to compile a list of the patients to be sent back to Gaza this week. “We don’t want to send them, but it’s it’s not our call at the end of the day”.Now, he fears for his patients. “All the support, all the efforts that we have been putting to try to cure them or to put them in a good condition or to improve their quality of life, it will be lost because there is no care in Gaza, there is no hospitals, there is no health care. The system is totally destroyed. The mothers are preparing for their journey. They’ve bought sweets and toys for the children who are waiting for them. “If they want to throw away all my belongings, they can. But not this bag for my daughter”. It is all they can bring for the children who have endured so much in six months and the babies who will soon learn the reality of war far too young.
