Palestinian Red Crescent worker Mohammad Jamal Salah, 42, is one of many Gazans who has faced horrors throughout the war.
For 40 days, Mr Salah has had to stay strong for his team in Gaza’s north, in Jabilia, where he had set up and ran the north’s only functioning medical complex, which still helps to deliver babies and treat the wounded.
“I want this war to end so I can cry,” he says
“I will never forget the day we received 95 bodies and 38 critically injured people, all between the hours of 2am and 6am.”
Most of the survivors died, he said, due to a lack of treatment.
On December 20, Mr Salah says he sensed he was in more danger than usual and that Israeli forces were closing in on him when he was unable to leave the Palestinian Red Crescent’s ambulance centre in Jabilia to travel to the medical port as he did every day.
“I just waited for them to arrive.”
He had 127 people with him, with 22 wounded, including a boy, 17, and his co-worker, Mohammad Abu Rukbeh, who had third-degree burns on his legs and back.
Israeli forces including tanks, soldiers and snipers soon surrounded the ambulance centre.
Through speakers, they repeatedly called for the head of the Red Crescent to come out.
As he walked out, he began to shake as snipers set their laser pointers on him.
