ALBAWABA - In spite of the continuous Israeli onslaught, the young of Gaza have started to restore Al-Shifa Hospital, the biggest medical facility in the Gaza Strip. Following the hospital's 14-day siege by the Israeli occupation force in April of last year, during which many atrocities were carried out, rehabilitation work is already underway.
Social media users have been very engaged since the restoration project began, sharing the video extensively. Numerous others called the photos "historic and almost unbelievable" and "shocking for Israel," particularly in light of the hospital's considerable damage and the ongoing closure of all border crossings.
Using the term "an undefeatable people," a blogger praised the Gazan people's tenacity in commenting on the restoration scenes, emphasizing their will to reconstruct the biggest health facility in the Strip with the resources at hand despite the continuing fighting.
On April 1, the Israeli occupation force left Al-Shifa Medical Complex, exposing the horrifying results of two weeks of vicious attacks on patients, their families, and medical personnel. The Euro-Mediterranean Human Rights Monitor initially estimated that over 1,500 people had died, been injured, or gone missing, with women and children making up half of the victims. The martyrs' remains were burned, disfigured, and ran over by bulldozers and military vehicles.
The reopening of Al-Shifa Hospital in the face of such extreme hardship is evidence of the Gazan people's tenacity and will.
