Warda al-Awawda, a nurse in the neonatal intensive care department at Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital, said that there had been a rising influx of newborns requiring intensive care amid Israel’s ongoing bombardment. “We have received more cases than normal rate because cases we receive are not limited to premature newborns only,” she stated. “We have received cases of newborns injured by bombings, or newborns who lost their fathers. The beds are full. On one occasion we received eight cases and we placed them in six incubators,” she added.
