A graveyard of patients and staff

On Monday 1 April I am sending this letter which I had prepared late in the evening of the 31st, and which is now only testimony to Israel's determination to destroy every civil structure and every possibility of life in Gaza. Tonight they totally destroyed the Shifa hospital so that it is unrecognisable. The hospital had already been occupied and searched for two weeks, the only evidence that it was an arms depot or commando headquarters you can see in the Israeli newspapers, about ten small arms and pistols. Two photos and an Islamic Jihad flag.
