‘We can hear and see people dying but can't reach them'

Munir al-Barsh, the general manager for the Palestinian Ministry of Health said that the situation in Gaza is dire, as a result of continued Israeli bombing. 

“We can hear and see people dying but emergency services can no longer reach them,” he said on Friday in an interview with Al Jazeera. 

Speaking inside al-Shifa Hospital which is under siege, he also added that Israeli forces had destroyed an MRI machine as well as other medical equipment. 

"They [Israeli forces] are searching for something that is not here, there is nothing here," he added.
