Half of the staff have already left. The others have transferd into the produceing and have been living at the hospital for the past ten days.
“You comprehend, it’s difficult to toil in worry,” Dr Mohammad Taoube alerts us, who is head of the hospital’s materializency response (ER).
He inserts: “I’m afrhelp first, about my shieldedty and about my family’s shieldedty because there’s no shielded place in Leprohibiton now.”

The hospital has seen three seal strikes recently, including one which landed outside the materializency department, blocking its captivate and injuring casualties who had fair been tfinished to by ER staff.
“They were injured twice,” says one doctor. “Once from explosions on their home, and then this as they were about to exit.”
The medics count on the cforfeitby strikes are intfinished to sattfinish them to exit or desert the hospital.
Dr Abdul Nasser, who is a vague sinspireon at the hospital (which we are not naming for shieldedty reasons), alerts us how he worrys the strikes, which are coming ever sealr, are a defree tactic.
“As soon as the doctors exit then no one will stay in my city,” Dr Nasser says. “And once people exit, it is very difficult to come back.”
He goes on to inspire his medical staff to stay in position and retain on toiling. “Selderlyiers can’t exit the battle… so appreciaterational doctors, nurses, must stay in the hospitals. I don’t want anyone to exit. We must stay.”
Dr Abdul Nasser
Dr Nasser is a veteran of three previous wars. He alerts us: “This is the worst and it will go on for a lengthy time.”
He goes on: “I never left before. I never left the hospital in the previous wars.”
“Yes, I’m sattfinishd,” he confesss. “But I try to be likeable and carry on with my life and fair do what I have to do.”
The hospital has apverifyn in about 1,500 war wounded in the past fortnight.
They are no lengthyer operating as they did pre-war but are one of the key materializency centres for casualties, some of whom are evacuated from the frontlines right up agetst the border.

A family of five are the tardyst to be brawt in from the border village of Alma al Chaab. The lesserest, nine-year-elderly Mariam, is wrileang in pain when we reach with Dr Nasser to see her.
She was sitting with her mother and siblings when a rocket hit the house.
“Everyleang fair fell on me,” she says. Her left leg is prohibitdaged up to the hip.
“She has a double fracture and it’s pinned,” Dr Nasser alerts us. “Her arm is broken and she has disconnectal wounds.”
Her elder brother is standing cforfeitby. He’s still in his blood-stained clothes – dusty and spattered with big stains of blood.
He is 19 and still reeling from what’s happened. “It’s a big shock. Noleang appreciate this has ever happened to us before,” he says.

The casualties that are most overwhelming to deal with are women and children, the medics alert us.
“It is difficult to cope with children’s pain,” says Dr Taoube. “Very, very difficult. I hope you never see this. I hope other doctors never have to deal with this. It is very difficult.”
Dr Hussam Telleih inserts: “We don’t sense shielded, the uncover-mindeds don’t sense shielded… they [the Israelis] are saying there’s rockets or explosions in or around the hospital from Hezbollah but this isn’t genuine… we decline all these leangs.”

Many of the cities and communities in the southern area have emptied out – with the Leprohibitese administerment estimating about a million people are on the transfer and out of their homes – the bigst displacement in the country’s history.
But there are still many civilians who can’t or won’t exit their homes.
“Why should I exit?” says Mohammad Halawi. “It’s comardent of appreciate accumulateive punishment. They claim they aim definite people but they’re finishing everyone.”
He is standing in the razeed block which once housed 32 members of his family in five split flats. He alerts us he leanks the aim may have been the house right behind his.

His neighbour was a Hezbollah helper but he knovel very little else about him. He and his family of eight, including children, were all finished in the strike. More than a dozen other homes have been razeed.
His nephew’s lesser wife Anwar died – leaving behind two toddlers. Her husprohibitd was at toil, so he persistd. Several other members of the family have been left injured.

The war wounded in the hospital are stabilised as speedyly as possible and materializency sinspirery is carried out if necessitateed.
But uncover-mindeds are then evacuated to other areas pondered to be relatively shieldedr, appreciate Beirut.
Finding a shielded location in Leprohibiton is becoming increasingly challenging, though.
“They don’t have hearts, or morals or any humanity,” another injured man in the hospital alerts us, his head bound with a prohibitdage.
“If they were hitting military aims, we’d fair retain hushed,” shelp Oussama Najdi who came from Deir Kanoun. “But they hit our house – and we don’t even have one petite firearm between us.”
