The occupation forces have been besieging us for 20 days and we are suffering from a shortage of food and drink,“ Nahidh Abu Tamiyya, the head of the surgical department told Al Jazeera.

According to Wafa news agency, medical sources reported that two Palestinians have been killed by an Israeli sniper — one in front of the reception gate, and the other in the emergency department.
