“NO HOSPITAL IN THE WORLD COULD RESPOND TO THIS LEVEL OF TRAUMA”
June 10, 2024
Dr. James Smith, a British Emergency Physician, has recently returned from Gaza and speaks of the IMPOSSIBLE LOAD that small hospitals are forced to bear.
“We’re talking today about two hospitals, two very small hospitals… that have between them received upwards of 400 dead and injured people. There is no health facility anywhere in the world that could respond under those conditions.”
The death toll from the NUSEIRAT MASSACRE has increased to 274 civilians, including 64 children and 57 women, and destroyed 89 homes. But of course, Western media prefers to focus on the 4 hostages.
A genocide before our eyes.

English Script:
James Smith: I heard from from the team that we worked with that they had received 120 people that were killed and more than 250 injured. And that’s only at Al Awda hospital, Al-Aqsa, which is now one of the main receiving hospitals or frankly, the only major receiving hospital for the middle area of Gaza, received similar numbers of killed and injured people. It is a massacre almost beyond comprehension. It’s my Palestinian colleagues, the people that I’ve worked with for the last seven and a half weeks in Gaza are some of the most incredible people that I have ever met and had the privilege to work with. But the reality is that there is no hospital in the world that can respond to this level of trauma. We talk about mass casualty incidents being a situation in which a hospital receives in a very short space of time many injured patients. We’re talking today about two hospitals, two very small hospitals that have between them received, we believe, upwards of 400 dead and injured people. There is no health facility anywhere in the world that could respond under those conditions.
